Demonstration power plant (DEMO) reactors require advanced tritium breeders with high thermal stability. Li2TiO3with excess Li (Li2+xTiO3+y) has been developed as a material for an advanced tritium breeder. Considering the tritium release characteristics and the packing factor of the blanket, the optimum pebble diameter and grain size after sintering were determined to be 1 mm and <5 μm, respectively. Therefore, optimum sintering conditions were surveyed in the present study to obtain these target values. The predominant factor affecting grain growth is assumed to be the presence of binder in the gel particles. This remaining binder reacts with the excess Li in the Li2+xTiO3+yand Li2CO3is generated, which promotes grain growth. To inhibit the generation of Li2CO3, calcined Li2+xTiO3+ypebbles were sintered under vacuum and subsequent 1% H2–He atmosphere conditions. The diameter of the sintered Li2+xTiO3+ypebbles was 1.07 mm, and the average grain size on the surfaces and cross sections was <5 μm. The results presented show that Li2+xTiO3+ypebbles with optimum characteristics were successfully fabricated using the emulsion method.
