Armors and ammunitions
Casings for shells, to make them heavier and more penetrating
The military uses depleted uranium primarily for armor-piercing ammunition and armor plating for vehicles due to its high density and ability to penetrate armor. It is also used in some military vehicles for counterweights and ballast.
- Armors for tanks. - Projectiles with high density and penetration force. The external irradiation from these materials is not important; inhalation of powders must be avoided.

Applications of uranium: - nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors - explosive for nuclear weapons - material for armors and projectiles - catalyst - additive for glasses and ceramics (to obtain beautiful green colors) - toner in photography - mordant for textiles - shielding material (depleted uranium) - ballast and other minor applications

Scientists use uranium for many reasons. Uranium - powers nuclear power plants - makes electricity - is used in radioactive dating - is used in nuclear fission Applications of uranium: - nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors - explosive for nuclear weapons - material for armors and projectiles - catalyst - additive for glass and ceramics (to obtain beautiful green colors) - toner in photography - mordant for textiles - shielding material (depleted uranium) - ballast - and other minor applications
Uranium is not used for medical purposes. It is primarily used in nuclear reactors for power generation and in military applications for its radioactive properties. However, uranium isotopes are sometimes used in radiation therapy for cancer treatment.
