Ceramic–Metal (Cermet) Composites: A Review of Key Properties and Synthesis Methods Focused on Nuclear Waste Immobilization

This paper reviews key properties, applications, and examples of ceramic–metal composites (cermets) and metal matrix composites (MMCs) with emphasis on their applicability as waste forms for immobilizing nuclear waste. While the literature is mature for vitrified and cementitious radioactive waste f...
