  1. 1. Atomic Scale Degradation of Zirconium Alloys for Nuclear Applications

    Författare :Gustav Sundell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Irradiation damage; Hydrogen microanalysis; Hydrogen pick-up; Zirconium alloys; Atom probe tomography; Corrosion;

    Sammanfattning : Due to their low thermal neutron capture cross-section, zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry as fuel cladding and for structural components. The lifetime of the fuel assemblies in the reactors is primarily dictated by the ability of the cladding to withstand oxidation and hydrogen pick-up from the coolant water and radiation damage induced by the neutron flux.

  2. 2. Triboactive Component Coatings : Tribological Testing and Microanalysis of Low-Friction Tribofilms

    Författare :Fredrik Gustavsson; Staffan Jacobson; Bojan Podgornik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tribofilms; low-friction coatings; tungsten disulfide; TEM; Materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : Coatings are often used on critical components in machines and engines to reduce wear and to provide low friction in order to reduce energy losses and the environmental impact.A triboactive coating not only provides this desired performance, it also actively maintains the low friction by a structural or chemical change in a very thin top layer of these already micrometer thin coatings.

  3. 3. Mechanisms of Uniform Corrosion of Zirconium Alloys in Water and Steam

    Författare :Boel Wadman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Zirconium alloys are used in key components in nuclear reactors, e.g. fuel cladding tubes in pressurised water reactors. Current trends towards extended burnup of the nuclear fuel in these reactors have accentuated the demand for Zr alloys with higher uniform corrosion resistance under irradiation and lower hydrogen absorption.

  4. 4. Surface Characteristics of Water Atomized Pre-alloyed Steel Powders and their effect on Sintering

    Författare :Dimitris Chasoglou; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spinel oxides; sintering; Cr-pre-alloyed powder; reduction; sintering atmosphere; surface oxide; fractography; XPS; oxidation; AES; EDX; carbothermal reaction; SEM; Powder metallurgy;

    Sammanfattning : Powder Metallurgy (PM) is an efficient method, in terms of cost and raw material utilization, for the production of structural parts that have strict dimensional tolerances and complex geometries. In the common processing route, steel powder is fabricated by water atomization and then pressed and sintered into the final component. LÄS MER

  5. 5. A Study of Parameters and Properties Influencing the Size, Morphology and Oxygen Content of Water Atomized Metal Powders

    Författare :Fredrik Persson; Pär Jönsson; Christopher Neil Hulme; Lauri Holappa; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The production of metal powders by water atomization is a well-established process, which can be used to produce a wide range of particle sizes for different applications. In general, there is a lack of detailed knowledge about what process parameters that affect the powder properties for water atomized metal powders. LÄS MER
