Download or read book Phase Transformations and Corrosion of Zirconium-copper-molybdenum Alloys written by and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The low thermal neutron-capture cross section of zirconium, coupled with good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, have made this metal of practical interest in nuclear engineering. The work presented in this paper was part of a study of zirconium-copper-molybdenum alloys. The investigation studied the transformation reactions occurring during ageing of solution heat-treated alloys and determined the effect of heat treatment on their corrosion behaviour in steam.
