Abstract
Disclosed herein are a nuclear fuel rod for fast reactors, which includes an oxide coating layer formed on the inner surface of a cladding, and a manufacturing method thereof. The nuclear fuel rod for fast reactors, which includes the oxide coating layer formed on the inner surface of the cladding, can increase the maximum permissible burnup and maximum permissible temperature of the metallic fuel slug for fast reactors so as to prolong the its lifecycle in the fast reactors, thus increasing economic efficiency. Also, the fuel rod is manufactured in a simpler manner compared to the existing method, in which a metal liner is formed, and the disclosed method enables the cladding of the fuel rod to be manufactured in an easy and cost-effective way.
