The Effect of Annealing Temperature on the Microstructure and Properties of Cr–C–Al Coatings on Zircaloy-4 for Accident-Tolerant Fuel (ATF) Applications [PDF]
Elemental Cr/C/Al multilayers (stoichiometric ratio: 2:1:1) with and without a Cr overlayer have been synthesized on Zircaloy-4 substrates by magnetron sputtering. The effects of annealing temperatures (400 and 550 °C) on phase/microstructure formation, mechanical properties, and oxidation/corrosion performance have been comparatively studied ...

Protective coatings on zirconium-based alloys as accident-tolerant fuel (ATF) claddings
Abstract Surface-modified zirconium (Zr)-based alloys, mainly by fabricating protective coatings, are being developed and evaluated as accident-tolerant fuel (ATF) claddings, aiming to improve fuel reliability and safety during normal operations, anticipated operational occurrences, and accident scenarios in water-cooled reactors.
