Scientists Made a New Metal, and it Makes Nuclear Reactors Even Stronger
Posted by Shailesh Prasad in categories: materials, nuclear energy
An international team of researchers has developed a new type of metal alloy that could make nuclear reactors safer and more stable in the long term. The new material is stronger and lasts longer than steel.
Scientists have developed a new kind of high quality metal alloy that is suitable to use in building nuclear reactors. While it might not be a metal that has been invented entirely from scratch, it’s only recently that we have been able to produce this kind (this quality) of metal. And it could mean great things for nuclear technologies.
Harvesting Nuclear Power
