TLDR
In this paper, a comparison of a range of commercial and model alloys, conventional austenitic steels do not have sufficient oxidation resistance with only ∼18Cr-10Ni, and higher alloyed type 310 stainless steel is protective but Ni is not a desirable alloy addition for this application.

Microstructure study of nicraly and fecraly exposed to superheated steam at 800 C

TL;DR: In this paper, superheated steam is used as a surrogate fluid to evaluate two coating materials, FeCrAlY and NiCrAl, at 800 C. The results showed that the materials became discolored rapidly and NiAl still maintained some metallic sheen after 600 h.

Steam Oxidation Testing in the Severe Accident Test Station

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the steam oxidation kinetics of candidate alloys, the evaporation rate of alumina in steam and the development of integral data on FeCrAl compared to conventional Zr-based cladding.

The response of accident tolerant fuel cladding to LOCA burst testing: A comparative study of leading concepts

TL;DR: In this article , the authors compared the accident tolerance of three types of fuel claddings: Cr coated Zr-based alloys, ferritic FeCrAl, and SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites (CMCs).

Experimental observations in support of the dynamic-segregation theory to explain the reactive-element effect

TL;DR: In this article, a model was developed to explain the effects associated with the addition of reactive elements that is based on the segregation of reactive-element ions to scale grain boundaries and the metal-oxide interface.

Structural materials challenges for advanced reactor systems

P. Yvon, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a brief overview of various materials that are essential to establish advanced systems feasibility and performance for in pile and out of pile applications, such as ferritic/martensitic steels (9-12% Cr), nickel based alloys (Haynes 230, Inconel 617, etc.), oxide dispersion strengthened ferritic and martensite steels, and ceramics (SiC, TiC, etc.).

Oxide dispersion-strengthened steels: A comparison of some commercial and experimental alloys

TL;DR: In this article, the differences and similarities of different ODS steels are explained in terms of the microstructures of the steels, and observations are explained using the properties of the ODS micro-structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paralinear Oxidation of CVD SiC in Water Vapor

TL;DR: In this article, the long-term degradation rate of CVD SiC is determined by the volatility of the silica scale, which is observed as the water vapor oxidized the SiC and simultaneously volatilized the scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Oxide Volatilization on the Oxidation Kinetics of Cr and Fe‐Cr Alloys

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived equations which describe the oxidation behavior of a system in which both diffusive and gas/oxide interface processes occur simultaneously, and applied these equations to the oxidation of Cr and Fe-Cr alloys.
