“…Although new thermochemical models of defects and oxygen mobility have been recently developed for PuO 2Àx [39], a comprehensive model of defect formation and oxygen diffusion in UO 2+x is still lacking. The evaluation of oxygen diffusivity in UO 2+x [40] shows that several mechanisms contribute to oxygen diffusion and the chemical diffusion coefficient decreases with non-stoichiometry, x.…”

“…Ruello et al [40] have recently shown that the chemical diffusion coefficient for oxygen in UO 2+x is strongly dependent on x. Extrapolation of their results, obtained at 973-1673 K, indicates diffusion coefficients near 10 À5 cm 2 s À1 for x < 0.03, and 10 À6 cm 2 s À1 for 0.07 < x < 0.17, at 2000 K. They reported ÔsluggishÕ response in attempted measurements at still higher values of x.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
