Zirconium alloys are widely used in nuclear reactors due to their low absorption cross section against thermal neutrons and good mechanical properties. Inside the core of reactors, the hot water coolant reacts with zirconium and releases hydrogen into the zirconium lattice. With time, hydrogen concentration increases leading to the formation of a brittle phase known […]
