Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation process for preparing a Cr coating on the surface of a zirconium alloy substrate for nuclear application. The zirconium alloy substrate is ground, finally polishing processing is conducted on a metallographic phase polishing machine through polishing paste, and after the zirconium alloy substrate is polished to be smooth, washing is conducted on greasy dirt onthe surface of a zirconium alloy sheet; the zirconium alloy sheet is arranged in a vacuum furnace cavity of an ultrahigh vacuum magnetron sputtering device, and after the vacuum degree reaches the background vacuum 2*10<4> Pa, gas is injected, and bias voltage backwash washing is conducted for 10 minutes; after the backwash washing of the surface of the base sheet is completed and a Cr target israpidly started through a radio-frequency power supply, a baffle is closed, and pre-sputtering is conducted on the surface of the target for 10 minutes to remove surface oxide or adsorption impurities; the Cr target baffle is opened to conduct Cr coating deposition; and under the condition that a vacuum system is not turned off, the zirconium alloy is subjected to furnace cooling till the temperature is 100 DEG C or below, and distressing and deformation correcting processing is conducted. According to the preparation process, due to the adoption of the magnetron sputtering technology, the Crcoating with high binding force and high thickness is deposited on the zirconium alloy substrate for nuclear application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of metal surface modification, in particular to a preparation process for preparing a Cr coating on the surface of a zirconium alloy substrate for nuclear use. Background technique [0002] Zirconium alloy cladding exhibits good radiation resistance and corrosion resistance and has been successfully used in light water reactors (LWR). ) conditions, the high-temperature oxidation of the zirconium alloy cladding will release a large amount of hydrogen and heat, causing a serious nuclear accident, resulting in the leakage of a large amount of radioactive substances, and bringing catastrophic consequences to the human living environment, such as the "Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant Accident" in 2011. The research on accident-resistant cladding materials mainly focuses on the development of new accident-tolerant materials (ATF) to replace traditional zirconium alloys. The accident-tolerant materials are required to be used u...
