In-Reactor Autoclave Corrosion Studies II : Autoclave Z-19
Description:
In order to test the effect of chromate ion on the corrosion of Zircaloy-2 a 0.04 m uranyl sulfate solution (enriched) containing added acid, copper sulfate and 557 ppm Cr (VI) was autoclaved with rocking at 280 C for about eight days in the HB-5 facility of the LITR. The average corrosion rate established by the a rate of consumption of oxygen was 9.9 mpy at a power density of 4.9 w/ml. It is indicated by comparison with a previous corrosion study under LITR radiation that the presence of Cr (…
