In the 1970’s JSC Mashinostroitelny Zavod commenced serial production of BN-350 and BN-600 nuclear fuel. BN-600 fuel is characterized by increased enrichment by uranium-235 as compared with VVER. Due to liquid sodium coolant used in BN reactor corrosion resistance steel is used as a structural material for fuel rods and assemblies.
