Abstract:
Experience with corrosion in Nordic nuclear power pi ants
is compared with worldwide experience. Corrosion in seawater
systems and its prevention are discussed. Accelerated
corrosion tests on stainless steels for use in seawater
are evaluated. Some of the work described is part
of larger national research programs, such as dealloying
of aluminium bronzes and stress corrosion cracking of
high strength nickelbase alloys. Finally some alternative
materials for nuclear power applications are presented.
