US-UK built first capsules for advanced reactor materials testing

The capsules will undergo irradiation testing later this year.

The United States and United Kingdom have achieved a major breakthrough by creating test capsules constructed from cutting-edge metal alloys and graphite, paving the way for future advanced reactors. This groundbreaking project is part of a larger collaborative effort between the two countries to pool nuclear energy user facility resources, driving the advancement of civilian nuclear energy technologies. These innovative capsules are set to undergo rigorous irradiation testing later this year at the prestigious Idaho National Laboratory (INL), marking a significant leap forward in nuclear energy research and development.
