<p>A nuclear fuel rod cladding having a burnable absorber integrally incorporated therein has an outer tubular layer of a zirconium alloy; an intermediate layer, of a thickness less than the outer tubular layer, of a zirconium alloy containing a boron-containing burnable absorber; and an inner layer, of a thickness less than the intermediate layer, of zirconium metal. The layers are bonded together to form a cladding for the containment of nuclear fuel.</p> |
