The evolution of mechanical property change in irradiated austenitic stainless steels

Overview of microstructural evolution in neutron-irradiated austenitic stainless steels

I have tried to summarize the oxidation behavior of zirconium and its alloys in both gaseous and aqueous environments, and to show how other environments, such as liquid metals, can be considered as special cases of one or other of the main classes. It will be appreciated from the extent of the literature on zirconium alloys (the over-600 references are by no means a complete bibliography) that it was impossible to discuss the details of many of the studies reported. To achieve a comprehensive survey in the space available it has been necessary to present a single coherent view of the field, without perhaps devoting sufficient space to opposing views and the evidence adduced in their favor. I have endeavored to make the references as comprehensive as possible, however, only omitting some early ones that are cited in later publications, which adequately summarized their contents. Readers who may be stimulated to pursue the details of any particular aspect of the field should have little difficulty tracing these other references from the bibliographies of the works that are cited. Finally, if the gaps in our knowledge, which I have attempted to illuminate, provide the inspiration for even one reader to devise experiments which can unambiguously resolve some of the many still unanswered questions, then I will consider this review to have been worthwhile.
