Abstract

Abstract The role of Cs in corrosion of SN282 Si3N4 with 5.35 wt.% Lu2O3 was examined at 1200 °C for up to 20 h in oxygen with 220 ppm CsNO3 to determine particulars of SN282 corrosion under Cs, and high-temperature Cs+ behavior in glass silicate hosting 137Cs. Cs accelerates SN282 oxidation. The pronounced adverse effect of Cs on Si3N4 corrosion resistance is predicted thermodynamically more strongly for SiO2 dissolution in Cs silicate than in other alkali silicates. While oxidation kinetics remained parabolic, Cs oxide layers were thick, uneven, heterogeneous and cracked.
