Degradation mechanism of oxide film on SIMP steel in LBE at temperatures above 550 °C
The corrosion behavior of SIMP steel in liquid lead-bismuth eutectic was investigated to elucidate the degradation mechanism of Fe-based protective oxide film in LBE when the temperature exceeds the critical threshold of 550 °C. Results show that a three-

Microstructural evolution of pre-oxidized T91 steel during LBE dissolution corrosion
Abstract The microstructural evolution of T91 steel by pre-steam oxidation during LBE dissolution corrosion was investigated. A bi-layered pre-oxide film with Fe-rich outer layer and Cr-rich inner layer was formed on T91 steel, which was similar to the oxide film of T91 after oxidation corrosion in LBE.
