Nitrides and carbides are the object of renewed interest as candidate fuels or matrices for minor actinide incineration in advanced nuclear reactors (see e.g. the Gen.IV program [1]). In ITU such materials are investigated from both the experimental and the modelling point of view [2]. The experiments so far have covered fuels like UN and (Ux,Pu1-x)N and matrices like ZrN and (Zr0.8,Pu0.2)N.JRC.E.5-Nuclear chemistr
