Problems solved by technology

[0008] Under high temperature and irradiation conditions, refractory metals will undergo violent diffusion and chemical reactions with the ceramic matrix to form brittle carbides or silicides, which will not only form new pores but also reduce the mechanical properties of the cladding tube

Abstract

The invention relates to an accident-resistant fuel core cladding tube and a preparation method thereof. The accident-resistant fuel core cladding tube is a sandwich multilayered structure formed by alternately superimposing a continuous SiC fiber toughened SiC ceramic matrix composite material and a refractory metal layer according to design requirements. According to the multilayered structure,the continuous SiC fiber toughened SiC ceramic matrix composite material is used as an inner tube layer, the refractory metal layer is used as an intermediate tube layer, and the continuous SiC fibertoughened SiC ceramic matrix composite material is used as an outer tube layer. In the multilayered structure, the continuous SiC fiber toughened SiC ceramic matrix composite material layer mainly plays a support and bearing role, and the refractory metal layer mainly plays a sealing antiseep role. The accident-resistant fuel core cladding tube of the invention can maintain the airtightness of thecore cladding tube when the stress exceeds the elastic deformation range of the ceramic matrix composite material and the crack has been expanded in the composite material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an accident-resistant fuel nuclear cladding tube and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a multilayer SiC f The invention discloses a method for preparing a nuclear cladding tube composed of SiC ceramic matrix composite material and refractory metal. This nuclear cladding tube is mainly used for forming and protecting nuclear fuel rods in fourth-generation gas-cooled fast neutron nuclear reactors. The accident-resistant fuel nuclear cladding tube prepared by the method can also be used in other nuclear reactors, such as pressurized water reactors, boiling water reactors, and sodium-cooled fast neutron reactors. Background technique [0002] Ceramic matrix composites have attracted much attention because of their low density, high specific strength, high specific modulus, oxidation resistance, fatigue creep resistance, insensitivity to cracks, and no catastrophic damage. In addition, ceramic matrix composites still h...
