· JVASP-107743· PuTaC2

PuTaC2 is a refractory ceramic compound combining plutonium and tantalum carbides, belonging to the family of actinide-based ceramic materials. This is a research-phase material studied primarily for nuclear fuel applications and advanced refractory systems where extreme temperature stability and nuclear compatibility are required. The tantalum carbide matrix provides structural integrity in high-temperature environments, while the plutonium component makes this material relevant to specialized nuclear fuel cycles and weapons-related metallurgy research rather than conventional engineering.
