Efficient thermal management in polymers is essential for developing lightweight, high-strength materials with multifunctional capabilities.
The disclosure is directed to optimized fiber geometries for use in carbon fiber reinforced polymers with increased compressive strength per unit cost. The disclosed fiber geometries reduce the material processing costs as well as increase the compressive strength.
Ruthenium is recovered from used nuclear fuel in an oxidizing environment by depositing the volatile RuO4 species onto a polymeric substrate.
The invented alloys are a new family of Al-Mg alloys. This new family of Al-based alloys demonstrate an excellent ductility (10 ± 2 % elongation) despite the high content of impurities commonly observed in recycled aluminum.
A novel and cost-effective process for the activation of carbon fibers was established.

V-Cr-Ti alloys have been proposed as candidate structural materials in fusion reactor blanket concepts with operation temperatures greater than that for reduced activation ferritic martensitic steels (RAFMs).
ORNL contributes to developing the concept of passive CO2 DAC by designing and testing a hybrid sorption system. This design aims to leverage the advantages of CO2 solubility and selectivity offered by materials with selective sorption of adsorbents.
High strength, oxidation resistant refractory alloys are difficult to fabricate for commercial use in extreme environments.
The first wall and blanket of a fusion energy reactor must maintain structural integrity and performance over long operational periods under neutron irradiation and minimize long-lived radioactive waste.
Spherical powders applied to nuclear targetry for isotope production will allow for enhanced heat transfer properties, tailored thermal conductivity and minimize time required for target fabrication and post processing.
