THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE STEAM AUTOCLAVE TEST FOR ZIRCALOY- 2

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4077448

A developmental program to reduce hydrogen pick-up and time in testing Zircaloy-2 reactor components is described. Recommendations include construction of an autoclave that will permit continuous observations of specimens during steam testing and further investigations of the chemical oxidation of Zircaloy.
