Abstract

Nickel-based alloys containing chromium and iron are alternative high-temperature materials to austenitic stainless steels at temperatures in excess of 800° C in gas-cooled reactor systems. In particular, some of the commercial superalloys may find application as cladding for ceramic fuel elements. These complex alloys contain a number of minor constituents that appear to play an ill-defined but essential role in regulating mechanical properties and oxidation resistance.
