Zirconium alloy tube is an alloy tubular material made of metal zirconium and other metals. Due to the excellent nuclear properties and corrosion resistance of zirconium, zirconium alloy tubes are often used in nuclear fuel assemblies and internal structures of water-cooled reactors, and are important nuclear materials. The ingots for processing zirconium alloy tubes are made of sponge zirconium. Alloying elements can be added in the form of high-purity metals or master alloys. |

Zirconium alloy tube process: (1) Zirconium has a strong affinity with gas. It reacts with O, H and N at about 200, 300 and 400 °C, respectively. The reaction is rapid at higher temperatures, so casting and heat treatment must be carried out in a vacuum furnace. When hot working in the atmosphere, proper protection should be taken and the operating time at high temperature should be shortened. (2) The friction coefficient between zirconium and the mold is high, and it is easy to adhere to the surface of the mold; the thermal effect of plastic deformation is significant, and good lubrication conditions are required during processing. |
