The cold spray parameters and feedstock powders were varied to attain the desired coating properties such as thickness, microstructure, and oxidation resistance, on both Zr-alloy flat specimens and cladding tubes.

To simulate the performance of the coatings under normal LWR operating conditions, the coated samples were also tested in prototypical PWR coolant condition as well as high energy heavy ion irradiation. Microstructures, phases, and mechanical properties of the feedstock powders and as-deposited coatings were examined, and oxidation and inter-diffusion profiles were quantified in post-oxidation test samples. Overall, cold sprayed Cr coatings show significant promise for enhancing the accident tolerance of zirconium-alloy fuel cladding in LWRs both in terms of performance and cost-effective manufacturability.</span></p>
