Problems solved by technology

However, for this kind of N-containing coating, the N content is relatively high, and N has a high thermal neutron absorption cross section, which will greatly reduce the neutron economy during the use of the cladding
At present, the zirconium alloy used for medium pressure water reactor fuel cladding of nuclear reactor has poor corrosion resistance to high temperature water vapor and has problems such as fretting wear and so on.

Abstract

The invention discloses a nuclear reactor fuel cladding nano-composite coating and a preparation method thereof, and relates to the technical field of nano-composite coatings. The nano-composite coating comprises a metal layer, a first transition layer, a second transition layer and a functional layer which are sequentially laminated on the surface of the nuclear fuel cladding; the component of the metal layer is Cr; the component of the first transition layer is CrN; the component of the second transition layer is CrCN; and the component of the functional layer is CrTiSiCN. The coating has good binding force, and by reducing the content of the N element in the coating and introducing the C element, on one hand, the neutron economy of the fuel cladding is improved, on the other hand, a C elementary substance phase with high surface hardness and a low friction coefficient is obtained, and the effects of strong friction reduction, wear resistance and high heat conduction are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of nanocomposite coatings, in particular to a nuclear reactor fuel cladding nanocomposite coating and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] As a kind of green, clean and efficient energy, nuclear energy can not only increase energy supply, optimize energy structure, but also greatly reduce the emission of greenhouse gases and polluting gases. It has become an indispensable and important part of my country's energy composition. The development of nuclear power is the focus of China's energy strategy. The pressurized water reactor uses light water as the coolant and moderator, and the pressurized water reactor core is placed in a cylindrical pressure vessel. The fuel element is clad with a zirconium alloy tube and contains uranium dioxide pellets. Zirconium alloy cladding, as the first barrier to the radioactivity of the reactor core, has a series of advantages such as low neutron absorp...
