The nucleation of hydrides in a Zr-2.5 wt% Nb alloy
V. Perovic,G.C. Weatherly +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the precipitation of hydride plates in a Zr-2.5 wt% Nb alloy is shown to be sensitive to the prior heat treatment of the alloy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Dislocation Substructures in Zr-2.5 Nb Pressure Tube Alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the nature of dislocation substructure formed at α:α and α: β boundaries in Zr-Nb pressure tube alloys by electron microscopy, and the importance of these dislocation arrays in understanding the strengthening mechanisms and irradiation growth behaviour of the alloy is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen and deuterium profiling at the surface of zirconium alloys: II. The effects of oxidation
TL;DR: In this paper, the H(15N, αγ)12C and D(3He, P) α reactions were used to measure H and D profiles in Zr-2.5 wt% Nb alloys and single crystals of Zr, which were oxidized in different atmospheres after loading with standard amounts of HO and D. Although considerable sample to sample variability was found, large H or D peaks were observed in the majority of the specimens, whose position corresponded to enhanced HO or D levels immediately below the surface oxide film.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal Diffusion of Hydrogen and Hydride Precipitation in Zr–Nb Pressure Tube Alloys
TL;DR: The thermal diffusion of hydrogen in a Zr-2.5 wt % Nb pressure tube alloy has been studied in the H range from 28 to 108 ppm as a function of specimen orientation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen and deuterium profiling at the surface of zirconium alloys: I. The effects of surface preparation
TL;DR: In this article, the H(D) peaks are found after fine metallographic sample preparation techniques and the peaks may be substantially reduced by using a fine machining operation (as the last step in surface preparation) or may be totally removed by vacuum annealing.
