Abstract

A zirconium-based alloy resistant to alkaline water corrosion, composed of the following components by weight percentage: Sn: 0.3‑0.5, Nb: 0.2‑0.5, Fe: 0.1‑0.4, Cr: 0.1‑0.4, V, Ni, One or more elements in Si: 0.004‑0.02, O: 0.08‑0.16, the balance is Zr and other impurities. The present invention reduces the content of Sn and Nb in the zirconium alloy, adds Fe, Cr element, one or more elements in V, Ni, Si, and adjusts the content of alloy elements such as Fe, Cr, V, Ni, Si to Appropriate level improves the corrosion resistance of zirconium alloy in lithium hydroxide aqueous solution. Put the zirconium alloy in 70ppm lithium-containing water and corrode it for 250 days at a temperature of 360°C and a pressure of 18.6MPa. The corrosion weight gain of the zirconium alloy does not increase. More than 65mg / dm 2 , the corrosion rate is lower than 0.260mg / dm 2 / d.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of special alloy materials, in particular to a zirconium-based alloy resistant to alkaline water corrosion. Background technique [0002] Due to the small thermal neutron absorption cross-section, zirconium alloy has good corrosion resistance in high temperature and high pressure water and steam, and has quite good resistance to neutron radiation in the reactor, so it is widely used as a component of nuclear power water-cooled reactors. The cladding material is also the only cladding material currently used in nuclear power plant reactors. [0003] In the early days, cladding materials were usually made of Zr-2 and Zr-4 alloys. With the further development of nuclear power, on the basis of ensuring the safety of nuclear reactors, it is necessary to improve the economics of nuclear reactors and reduce the operating costs of nuclear power. Therefore, the goals of long life, high burnup, and zero damage are proposed for...
