Microstructure, oxidation behaviour and thermal shock resistance of self-passivating W-Cr-Y-Zr alloys

Self-passivating tungsten based alloys for the first wall armor of future fusion reactors are expected to provide an important safety advantage compare to pure tungsten in case of a loss-of-coolant accident with simultaneous air ingress, due to the formation of a stable protective scale at high temp...
