Depleted uranium nitride (UN) kernels with diameters ranging from 420 to 858 microns and theoretical densities (TD) between 87 and 91 percent were postprocessed using a hot isostatic press (HIP) in an argon gas media. This treatment was shown to increase the TD up to above 97%. Uranium nitride is highly reactive with oxygen. Therefore, a novel crucible design was implemented to remove impurities in the argon gas via insitu gettering to avoid oxidation of the UN kernels. The density before and after each HIP procedure was calculated from average weight, volume, and ellipticity determined with established characterization techniques for particle. Micrographs confirmed the nearly full densification of the particles using the gettering approach and HIP processing parameters investigated in this work.
