ABSTRACT:
An alloy having improved resistance to hydriding as well as good corrosion resistance, adequate strength, fabricability and irradiation growth. These properties make the new alloy exceptionally suited for use in boiling water reactor components such as fuel channels, fuel cladding and fuel rod spacers. The class of alloys includes zirconium-based alloys having about 0.3-1.2% tin, about 0.8-1.4% chromium, about 0.05-0.7% iron, and the remainder substantially zirconium.
