Microstructure, oxidation and corrosion properties of FeCrAl coatings with low Al content prepared by magnetron sputtering for accident tolerant fuel cladding
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract FeCrAl coatings with a low Al content were deposited onto Zr-4 substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering (RFMS), and the effect of the bias on the microstructure, composition, high-temperature steam oxidation and corrosion properties of the FeCrAl coatings was systematically investigated. Oxidation and autoclave tests showed that the FeCrAl coating with a bias of −150 V (Fe: 80.2 at.%, Cr: 16.7 at.%, and Al: 3.1 at.%) had excellent high-temperature 1000°C steam oxidation and corrosion resistance. The oxidation and corrosion mechanisms are also discussed in detail.
