The 16 pages that link to Enrichment of uranium, each with the reason it gives.

• Nuclear proliferationRelated: It can produce reactor fuel or, at high enrichment, weapons-usable material.

• Nuclear fuel cycleRelated: Most light-water reactors require enriched uranium before fuel fabrication.

• Uranium-235Related: Natural uranium contains too little uranium-235 for many reactor designs, so its share is increased.

• UraniumRelated: Enrichment raises the fissile isotope fraction for reactor fuel and some weapons.

• Nuclear fuelRelated: Enrichment prepares uranium for reactor designs requiring more fissile material than natural uranium provides.

• Uranium hexafluorideRelated: UF₆ supplies the gaseous feed used in major enrichment processes.

• Uranium miningRelated: Mined uranium may enter enrichment before use in many reactor fuels.

• Fissile materialRelated: Enrichment raises uranium's fissile-isotope concentration for reactor fuel or other purposes.

• Atoms for PeaceRelated: Enrichment technology illustrates the dual-use expertise that peaceful nuclear cooperation could spread.

• Depleted uraniumRelated: Depleted uranium is the uranium stream left over when enrichment raises uranium-235 in another stream.

• Chlorine trifluorideRelated: ClF₃ has been used in fluorination steps associated with uranium processing.
