Abstract
⺠In commercial Zr-Nb alloys, Sn was removed for improved corrosion resistance at the expense of strength. ⺠The addition of sulphur was found to enhance the mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. ⺠Phosphorous and sulphur have the similar electronic structure, atomic radius and electronegativity. ⺠The strength was enhanced by increasing Nb (to 1.5%) and oxygen (to 1600 ppm) and adding phosphorous. ⺠Zr-1.5Nb-O-P alloys were found to have excellent mechanical properties.
