Abstract

One of the basic technological operations of the currently developed pyrochemical technology for reprocessing spent nitride nuclear fuel from fastneutron reactors (SNF RBN) is high-temperature treatment (HTT) in a gas environment. The aim of the work was to study the effect of oxygen-containing gas environments: a dry mixture of Ar-20 vol. % O2 and a mixture of Ar-20 vol. % O2, with 60% humidity for the degradation of 10CrNi45Al alloy, a candidate material for the manufacture of the HTT apparatus. Corrosion tests lasting up to 1000 hours were carried out at 500°C. It was established by the X-ray diffraction method that the main corrosion products formed on the surface of samples kept in a dry gas atmosphere are Al2O3, Fe2O3 and NiFe2O4. The presence of moisture in the gas environment contributes to the formation of NiO and NiСrO4. In a dry gas mixture, an outer layer is observed on the surface of the sample, which is individual fragments of corrosion products: oxide compounds of iron, chromium, nickel. The surface of the material is covered with a continuous film with a thickness of 2 to 5 μm based on aluminum oxide. For samples tested in a wet gas mixture, a violation of the continuity of the internal protective layer was revealed. The outer loosened layer consists of iron oxides, under which a layer with a predominant content of oxygen-containing chromium compounds was revealed.
