In this study, the chlorination of uranium metal using ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) was conducted to derive an easy and simple uranium chloride production method without impurities. In thermodynamic equilibrium calculations, it was predicted that only uranium chlorides can be produced by the reactions between uranium metal and NH4Cl. Experimental conditions for the chlorination of uranium metal were determined using a chlorination test of cerium metal using NH4Cl. It was confirmed that UCl3 and UCl4 in the form of particles as uranium chlorination products can be obtained from the chlorination method using NH4Cl.
