Abstract
Compressive and tensile creep were measured on UO2 doped with 0.4 wt % niobia at controlled oxygen potentials. Kinetic results were almost identical, irrespective of the nature of the applied stress, but differences in after‐test microstructures were observed. Formation of “plastic” UO2 with increases in strain rate of more than two orders of magnitude were recorded when oxygen potential changed from −560 to −410 kJ/mol; this was associated, primarily, with the formation of the Nb4+ ion. Over the same range of oxygen potential, creep activation energy decreased linearly from −425 to −225 kJ/ mol. In contrast, strain rate and activation energy for undoped UO2 remain almost constant under these conditions.
