Abstract
In a fusion blanket design, ceramic coating on structural materials has been considered to be used as a tritium permeation barrier. The Chemical Densified Coating (CDC) method has some advantage compared with another coating method. This method is capable to form densified coating on either the outer or the inner surface of a tube or a container. This process temperature is low (450°C). The fabrication technique of Cr2O3-SiO2 coating had been developed using CDC method. However, Cr2O3-SiO2 coating had open pores in the coating. For filling open pores, the densification treatment by CrPO4 was examined. In this study, the verification of open pores, the thermal shock resistivity, the adhesion strength and the deuterium permeability were evaluated and compared with Cr2O3-SiO2 (Type 1) coating and Cr2O3-SiO2 including CrPO4 (Type 2) coating. From these results, it was confirmed that Type 2 coating had a good adhesion property, and permeation reduction factor of SS316 with Cr2O3-SiO2 including CrPO4 coating reached about 1,000 at 600°C.
