The neutron irradiation influence on the nodular corrosion development of zirconium RBMK-1000 tubes

Description

Microstructure examinations were carried out on nodular corrosion in zirconium tubes by metallography and X-ray methods. Observations show that the mono-nodules core contains secondary phase separations such as carbides, intermetallics, hydrides, etc., induced by radiation swelling. A model of the nodular corrosion development under irradiation is proposed. 10 refs., 4 figs
