This new cladding developed by General Atomics could transform the way industry makes nuclear fuel. It’s made from silicon carbide – a durable, temperature-resistant composite material that's been used in cutting tools and high-power electrical systems for decades. The cladding weaves in silicon carbide fiber to withstand some of the harshest reactor conditions. It could help improve the overall economics and performance of today’s reactors — and provide resistance to higher temperatures than tr
