Homogenization and Growth Behavior of Second-Phase Particles in a Deformed Zr–Sn–Nb–Fe–Cu–Si–O Alloy

Homogeneous distribution of fine second-phase particles (SPPs) fabricated by cycles of deformation and annealing in zirconium alloys is a critical consideration for the corrosion resistance of fuel claddings. Different deformation degrees of zirconium alloys would result in distinctive microstructur...
