This new cladding developed by General Atomics could transform the way industry makes nuclear fuel. It’s made from silicon carbide – a durable, temperature-resistant composite material that's been used in cutting tools and high-power electrical systems for decades. The cladding weaves in silicon carbide fiber to withstand some of the harshest reactor conditions. It could help improve the overall economics and performance of today’s reactors — and provide resistance to higher temperatures than tr

WATCH 👀 what happens when these two fuel claddings are exposed to high temperature steam under a simulated loss of coolant event. ➡️ The one on the left is a Zircaloy cladding widely used in operating light-water reactors. ➡️ The one on the right is General Atomics' new SiGA cladding made from silicon carbide. ➡️ The ceramic material can withstand temps up to 3800°F 🌡️ ➡️ That’s around 500°F higher than the melting point of zirconium alloy cladding. ➡️ For the experiment, the claddings were ex
