        Irradiated uranium dioxide in damaged used fuel could oxidize during transportation, interim storage or disposal, resulting that the fuel pellet fragments are reduced to a grain-sized powder that can easily escaped from the damaged rod. It has been reported that oxidized spent fuel (i.e. U4O9+x) that was in contact with water could increase the dissolution rate by making the grain boundaries more accessible to the water. Therefore, the damaged used fuel requires stabilization technology including nuclear material recovery, pellet manufacturing process, and stabilization fuel rod manufacturing that can secure safety in terms of permanent disposal. In this study, we prepared pure UO2 and SIMFUEL pellets that are a mixture of UO2 and surrogated metallic oxides for fission products equivalent to a burn-up of 35 GWd/tU and 55 GWd/tU as the stabilized spent fuel. The UO2 and fission products powders were milled and pressed into pellets at 250 MPa and sintered at 1,550°C and 1,700°C for 6 hours in an atmosphere of 4%H2-Ar. The prepared UO2 and SIMFUEL pellets were placed in PTFE Teflon vessels and filled with deionized water to identify the leaching behavior by a long-term leaching experiment under the similar condition to a repository for the safe disposal.
