The Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy awarded a $900,000 Project Grant to the University of Wisconsin-Madison under the Nuclear Energy Research, Development and Demonstration program (CFDA 81.121). The grant will support a research project focused on advancing silicon carbide composite (SiCf-SiCm) cladding materials for nuclear applications. As a funded collaborator, General Atomics will provide sixteen SiCf-SiCm composite cladding tubes with varying surface morphologies and architectures for high-temperature testing and coating development by the University of Wisconsin. General Atomics will also perform non-destructive X-ray examination and helium gas leak testing on a subset of the tubes to measure and document their hermeticity. The overall project aims to resolve technical challenges in nuclear fuel cladding materials to support the development of advanced nuclear reactor technologies. The grant period of performance runs from August 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027.
