Abstract
Cs-Te corrosion tests were performed to FBR fuel cladding candidate materials listed below: 11Cr-Ferritic/Martensitic Steel (F/M steel) and 9Cr Oxide Dispersion Strengthened steel (ODS steel). The corrosion products of Cs-Te corrosive compound Cs2Te3 with F/M steel or ODS steel were picked up from the specimens after the corrosion test by focus ion beam method (FIB) and the corrosion products were specified based on element analysis and crystal analysis by transmit electron microscopy (TEM) with electron dispersion X-ray spectrum (EDS). The result of analysis allowed us to presume Cs-Te corrosion reactions in the Fe-Cr based fuel cladding material. The presumable reactions are 4Te+323Cr23C6âCr3Te4+1823C and 4Te+3CrâCr3Te4.
