Oxidation behavior of Cr-coated zirconium alloy cladding in high-temperature steam above 1200 °C

Abstract Dense, uniform, and well-adhered chromium (Cr) coatings were deposited on zirconium (Zr) alloy claddings by using physical vapor deposition (PVD). The Cr-coated samples were tested at 1200 oC and 1300 oC, respectively, for different exposure time in water steam environment. Microstructures...
