Abstract

The invention discloses a zirconium alloy material applied to a nuclear reactor, comprising the following components in percentage based on total weight of a zirconium alloy: N b 0.4%-0.6%, Fe 0.3%-0.4%, Cr 0.2%-0.3%, Cu 0.05%-0.15%, at least one of V 0.01%-0.05% and Ni 0.1%-0.2%, O 0.06%-0.14%, C <=1000 ppm, N <=80 ppm, and the balance of Zr. Research shows that the zirconium alloy disclosed by the invention is excellent in comprehensive performance, particularly good in corrosion resistance in pure water at 360 DEG C and in stream at 400 DEG C; and therefore, the zirconium alloy can be used as a can material of the nuclear reactor.

Description

A kind of Zirconium alloy material that is used for nuclear reactor
Technical field
The present invention relates to the Zirconium alloy material field, especially relate to a kind of nuclear pressurized water reactor Zirconium alloy material.
Background technology
The thermal neutron absorption cross section of zirconium is very little, and has good high-temperature resistant water corrosive nature and mechanical property, and therefore zirconium alloy is widely used as the can material of fuel stick and the structural element of nuclear reactor core in water cooled nuclear reactor.Along with the power producer technology develops towards the direction that improves fuel burnup and reduction fuel cycle cost, raising reactor thermo-efficiency, raising safe reliability, to the demands for higher performance such as corrosion resistance, hydrogen sucking function, mechanical property and irradiation dimensional stability of key core parts fuel element can material zirconium alloy.Creep and fatigue under the condition (irradiation, high temperature, high pressure and complicated stress), take place in fuel element under arms.Creep property is one of the major issue that will consider when working in the water-cooled power reactor of zirconium alloy, a large amount of research has been carried out in the creep of zirconium alloy both at home and abroad.At present the most ripe, most widely used is the zirconium alloy that is referred to as Zr-2, Zr-4 alloy, but along with the development of nuclear fuel assembly to long-lived phase, high burnup direction, requirement must have over-all propertieies such as better anti-corrosion, creep resistance, radioprotective growth as the zirconium alloy of reactor structural material, and Zr-2, Zr-4 alloy can not meet the demands in this.
Recent two decades comes, pressurized-water reactor is to having the research of updating and carry out the high-performance new zirconium alloy of material with the research tendency of zirconium alloy, general thought is to carry out the adjustment of alloying constituent content and add other alloying element on Zr-Nb system and Zr-Sn-Nb are the basis of alloy, and perhaps the two carries out simultaneously to reach the purpose of raising alloy monolithic performance.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention provides a kind of Zirconium alloy material, and its over-all properties is the corrosion resistance excellence particularly, is suitable for to make nuclear pressurized water reactor structured material.
For solving above technical problem, a kind of technical scheme that the present invention takes is: a kind of Zirconium alloy material that is used for nuclear reactor, gross weight with described Zirconium alloy material is a benchmark, and it is made up of following component: Nb0.4%~0.6%, Fe 0.3%~0.4%, Cr 0.2%~0.3%, Cu 0.05%~0.15%, V 0.01%~0.05%, O 0.06%~0.14%, C≤100ppm, N≤80ppm and Zr surplus.
The another technical scheme that the present invention takes is: a kind of Zirconium alloy material that is used for nuclear reactor, gross weight with described Zirconium alloy material is a benchmark, and it is made up of following component: Nb 0.4%~0.6%, Fe 0.3%~0.4%, Cr 0.2%~0.3%, Cu 0.05%~0.15%, Ni 0.1%~0.2%, 00.06%~0.14%, C≤100ppm, N≤80ppm and Zr surplus.
Perhaps, the present invention also can realize by following scheme: a kind of Zirconium alloy material that is used for nuclear reactor, gross weight with described Zirconium alloy material is a benchmark, and it is made up of following component: Nb 0.4%~0.6%, Fe0.3%~0.4%, Cr 0.2%~0.3%, Cu 0.05%~0.15%, V 0.01%~0.05%, Ni0.1%~0.2%, O 0.06%~0.14%, C≤100ppm, N≤80ppm and Zr surplus.
Preferably, in the zirconium alloy, the content sum of Fe and Ni is 0.45%~0.6%.Studies show that, when the content of Fe and Ni is in this scope, the anti-uniform corrosion better performances of zirconium alloy.
In the above-mentioned alloy formula, C and N unavoidable impurities for from raw material, bringing, one of ordinary skill in the art should be understood, other unavoidable impurities composition that some that may also comprise in the above-mentioned alloy formula are brought from raw material can not cause disadvantageous effect to zirconium alloy of the present invention when these impurity components exist with inevitable amount.
Because the enforcement of above technical scheme, the present invention compared with prior art has the following advantages: the present invention is optimized design to traditional Zr-Nb alloy, the Cr that adds specified quantitative can significantly reduce the corrosion of commissure, the proper C u that adds helps improving corrosion resistance nature, and the introducing of a small amount of V is beneficial to corrosion resistance that improves alloy and the mechanical property of improving alloy; The introducing of small amount of N i is beneficial to corrosion resistance nature that improves alloy and the suction hydrogen that reduces alloy, on above basis, the content that reduces Nb makes and is lower than its limit of solubility in alloy, help alloy to obtain higher yield strength and best creep-resistant property, and the Nb content in this scope can guarantee that zirconium alloy uncontrollable phase transformation can not take place, thereby has improved corrosion resistance nature.Generally speaking, zirconium alloy excellent combination property of the present invention satisfies the requirement of nuclear pressurized water reactor structured material.
Embodiment
The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiment, but the invention is not restricted to following examples.
With nuclear level zirconium sponge, Nb, Fe, Cu, Cr, a Ni, V element is prepared burden by mass percentage with the form of master alloy and adopt vacuum arc fumace to carry out repeatedly melting and make alloy pig; Chemical composition analysis is carried out in sampling to ingot casting, and alloying constituent sees Table 1.Ingot casting makes the zirconium alloy sheet material of corresponding composition through operations such as forging, hot rolling, cold rolling, annealing, and is prepared into the corrosion sample and carries out the rotten performance test of autoclave.
Eight kinds of zirconium alloy sheet material and Zr-1Nb sheet alloy to embodiments of the invention 1-8 carry out the corrosive nature test.Corrosion test is carried out in autoclave, and etching condition is 360 ℃/18.6MPa pure water and 400 ℃/10.3MPa steam.Table 1 has provided according to erosion rate and relative erosion rate under the composition proportion of embodiments of the invention 1-8 and their each comfortable above-mentioned etching conditions.9 *Be Zr-1Nb alloy composition and corresponding corrosion test result.
