Kinetic study on eutectic reaction between boron carbide and stainless steel by differential thermal analysis

Mechanical Engineering Journal, 2021
In a postulated severe accidental condition of sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR), the eutectic reaction between boron carbide (B4C) as control rod element and stainless steel (SS) as control rod cladding or related structure materials may take place. Thus,
