Grain boundary (GB) oxidation of proton-irradiated 304 nuclear grade stainless steel in primary water of pressurized water reactor was investigated. The investigation was conducted by studying microstructure of the oxide and oxide precursor formed at GB on an "atom-by-atom" basis by a combination of atom-probe tomography and transmission electron microscope. The results revealed that increasing irradiation dose promoted the GB oxidation, in correspondence with a different oxide and oxide precursor formed at the GB. Correlation of the oxide and oxide precursor with the GB oxidation behavior has been discussed in detail.
研究了质子辐照的304核级不锈钢在压水反应堆一回路水中的晶界(GB)氧化。通过结合原子探针断层扫描和透射电子显微镜,在“逐个原子”的基础上研究晶界处形成的氧化物和氧化物前驱体的微观结构来进行此项研究。结果表明,增加辐照剂量会促进晶界氧化,这与晶界处形成的不同氧化物和氧化物前驱体相对应。已详细讨论了氧化物和氧化物前驱体与晶界氧化行为的相关性。
