Section: claims

1. A nuclear fuel rod for fast reactors comprisinga metallic nuclear fuel slug;a nuclear cladding tube; andan oxide coating layer on an inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube before fuel fission,wherein the oxide coating layer is consisting essentially of any one selected from the group consisting of chromium oxide (Cr2O3), vanadium oxide (V2O3) and zirconium oxide (ZrO2). 2. The nuclear fuel rod of claim 1, wherein the oxide coating layer has a thickness of 0.1-100 μm. 3. The nuclear fuel rod of claim 1, wherein the oxide coating layer is formed on the inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by oxidation in an acid solution, high-temperature oxidation, electrolytic oxidation or vapor-phase deposition. 4. The nuclear fuel rod of claim 3, wherein the oxide coating layer is formed by the oxidation in an acid solution by steps comprising:polishing an inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by mechanical or chemical polishing;dipping the polished nuclear cladding tube in an acid solution; andwherein the acid is selected from the group consisting of nitric acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, sulfuric acid and perchloric acid. 5. The nuclear fuel rod of claim 3, wherein the oxide coating layer is formed on the inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by the high-temperature oxidation by steps comprising:polishing an inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by mechanical or chemical polishing;heating the polished nuclear cladding tube in a vacuum of 1.0×10−7-1.0×10−4 torr at 400-600° C. in a chamber; andinjecting oxygen into the chamber, containing the nuclear fuel rod, to a pressure of 1.0×10−5-1.0×10−1 torr. 6. The nuclear fuel rod of claim 3, wherein the oxide coating layer is formed on the inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by the electrolyte oxidation by steps comprising:polishing an inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by mechanical or chemical polishing;connecting the polished nuclear cladding tube to a metal network consisting of any one selected from the group consisting of platinum, gold, iron and aluminum, andapplying electric current to the electric circuit in an electrolyte solution at a current ratio of 0.60-2.0 for 15 minutes to 5 hours. 7. The nuclear fuel rod of claim 3, wherein the oxide coating layer is formed on the inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by the vapor-phase deposition by steps comprising:polishing an inner surface of the nuclear cladding tube by mechanical or chemical polishing;sputtering the polished nuclear cladding tube with argon ions;heating the ion-sputtered nuclear fuel rod at 200-300° C. to remove native oxides from the cladding tube surface; andforming the oxide coating layer on the inner surface of the polished nuclear cladding tube in a vacuum of 1.0×10−8-1.0×10−6 torr.
