Problems solved by technology

In the water vapor oxidation test, the FeCrAl coating may form FeAl, Fe 2 NiO 4 , Fe(OH) 2 and Al(OH) 3 Such corrosion products will reduce the corrosion resistance of the coating to varying degrees.
At the same time, ordinary metal coatings have low hardness and high process complexity, which is not conducive to the economy of fuel cladding

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-entropy alloy film for an accident fault-tolerant nuclear fuel cladding and a preparation method of the high-entropy alloy film, and the method sequentially comprises the steps of grinding and polishing, cleaning and blow-drying, vacuum pressure reduction, sputtering deposition and the like, so that the high-entropy alloy film with an amorphous structure is formed in a magnetron sputtering mode. According to the method, the influence of different contents of different elements on the accident fault tolerance performance of the coating can be researched, meanwhile, the film prepared through the method is high in integrity and compactness, the high-temperature water vapor oxidation resistance of the zirconium alloy substrate in the nuclear reactor accident environment is effectively improved, and the service life of the zirconium alloy substrate is prolonged. And the method can effectively reduce the manufacturing process complexity and the production cost of the accident fault-tolerant nuclear fuel cladding.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the preparation of nuclear fuel cladding films, in particular to a high-entropy alloy film for fault-tolerant nuclear fuel cladding and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In order to improve the accident tolerance of nuclear cladding, accident-tolerant fuels (ATF), compared with the traditional UO2-zirconium alloy cladding fuel system, can run stably for a long time in a water loss accident, and at the same time in normal operation. The performance of nuclear fuel has been improved to a certain extent under different operating conditions such as nuclear power plant operation and accidents. In addition to the core material, the most important thing in ATF is the nuclear fuel cladding. Compared with fuel replacement and cladding material replacement, the preparation of coatings on the basis of the existing zirconium alloy cladding is the most efficient solution to realize the ATF concept. . After resear...
