The first step for delayed hydride cracking in zirconium alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, two models for delayed hydride cracking in zirconium alloys are distinguished by their first step: loading of a crack induces hydroxide precipitation.

Delayed hydride cracking behavior for ZIRCALOY-2 tubing
F. H. Huang,W. J. Mills +1 more
TL;DR: The delayed hydride cracking (DHC) behavior for ZIRCALOY-2 tube was characterized at temperatures ranging from 93 °C to 288 °C as mentioned in this paper, with a very high threshold (stage I) regime followed by a region that was insensitive or moderately sensitive to the applied K level (stage II).

Assessment of aging of Zr2.5Nb pressure tubes in CANDU™ reactors
TL;DR: In this paper, a fitness-for-service methodology has been developed which assures that this will not happen, and the most recent results of the DHC and fracture toughness properties of CANDU pressure tubes are presented and used to suggest procedures for mitigation and life extension of the pressure tubes.
