Corrosion Degradation Mechanism of Cr-Coated Zr-4 Alloy under Simulated Nuclear Conditions for Accident-Tolerant Fuel
Cr coatings with a thickness of about 19 μm were synthesized on Zr-4 cladding using plasma-enhanced arc ion plating. A Zr-Cr micro-diffusion layer was formed via Cr ion cleaning before deposition to enhance the interface bonding strength. Cr coatings exhibit an obvious columnar crystal structure wit...
