Hydrogen Atom and Molecule Adsorptions on FeCrAl (100) Surface: A First-Principle Study

FeCrAl alloys are promising accident-tolerant fuel (ATF) cladding materials for applications in light water reactors (LWRs). Despite the excellent mechanical and antioxidation properties, this series of iron-based alloys has poor hydrogen embrittlement (HE) resistance due to the strong hydrogen upta...
