Hydrothermal corrosion of PVD and cold spray Cr-coatings on Zircaloy-4 in hydrogenated and oxygenated LWR coolant environments

Accident tolerant fuel (ATF) are currently being developed as part of an international effort to modify or replace zirconium-based cladding materials in light water reactors. The main objective of ATF cladding materials is to improve fuel reliability and safety during accident scenarios. Thus, these...
