ABSTRACT:
This is a process for making a very pure and very homogeneous zirconium material for use in lining the interior of zirconium alloy fuel element cladding. The improvement utilizes the forming of consumable feed material from generally virgin sponge material, melting the consumable feed material in a multiple swept beam electron beam furnace with a feed rate generally between 0.1 and less than about 1.0 inch per hour and then vacuum arc melting the EB melted material.
