IN SITU ELECTRON MICROSCOPY STUDY ON PRECIPITATION OF ZIRCONIUM HYDRIDES INDUCED BY STRAIN AND STRESS IN ZIRCALOY-2
1989
The precipitation hydrides induced by stress were found to be gamma
phase with orientation relationship of (110)_γ//(1120)_(αZr),(001)γ//(0001)_(αZr)between γ-
hydride and surrounding matrix. The growth of-hydrides exhibiter a quickest rate
along [110] direction, that brings them in taper shape. After cracking at hydride
matrix beundary, a new one will precipitate at the tip of cracks. This is
the essential process of hydrogen-induced delayed cracking in zircaloy The pre-
cipitating hydrides induced by strain were found to be delta phase Phase with both
orientation relationships of (111)_δ//(0001)_(αZr)(110)_δ//(1120)_(αZr) and (010)_δ//(0001)_(αZr)
(001)_δ//(1120)_(αZr) between δ-hydride and surrouding matrix. The δ-hydride becomes
much finer as the strain rate increased.
