Description

Out-of-pile performances were evaluated for Low Sn Zircaloy-4, A alloy, B alloy, C alloy and D alloy. Observation of microstructure by TEM and analysis of precipitate characteristics were performed to investigate the effect of microstructure on the out-of-pile corrosion behavior of the claddings. Corrosion characteristics of the claddings was evaluated by corrosion test in 360 .deg. C loop containing 2.2 ppm LiOH and 650 ppm H3BO3, 400 .deg. C steam and 360 .deg. C 70 ppm LiOH. Mechanical properties of the claddings were examined by tensile test and creep test
