报告摘要：
High-temperature calorimetry is a powerful and sensitive technique to probe material chemistry, chemical bonds, and local structures by measuring the thermodynamic properties, such as heat capacity, heats of phase transition, heats of reaction, mixing and formation. In the field of nuclear material research, this technique is very useful for studying the thermal stability, phase diagrams, geochemical processes, material synthesis and chemical compatibility. In this talk, I will start with our recently built thermal capabilities in the Nuclear Science Center at WSU and its mission. I will then introduce the principle of high-temperature drop solution calorimetry and differential scanning calorimetry, followed by their applications to nuclear materials with examples of thermodynamic studies on several U-containing compounds related to research on nuclear fuel materials, ceramic-based waste form, and actinide-containing minerals.
