Abstract

Nuclear fuel, where it contains uranium ditelluride UTe2 and uranium digermanide UGe2, where the uranium has a uranium 235U isotope enrichment of not more than 4.99% by weight, with uranium ditelluride UTe2 having a maximum enrichment of less than 5% of 235U isotope by weight and where uranium ditelluride UTe2 is proportional to powdered uranium digermanide UGe2 in a ratio of 1:9.
