Li3UO4

Li₃UO₄ is an inorganic ceramic compound combining lithium, uranium, and oxygen, belonging to the family of uranium-bearing oxides with potential relevance to nuclear fuel chemistry and solid-state ionics. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established industrial production, studied for its role in understanding uranium oxide chemistry, nuclear waste forms, and potentially as a constituent phase in advanced nuclear fuel systems or solid electrolyte composites. Engineers and materials researchers encounter Li₃UO₄ in specialized contexts involving nuclear materials development, where its structural and thermal properties inform fuel performance modeling and ceramic waste immobilization strategies.
