Growth and microstructure of a protective or nonprotective SiO 2 scale the subsequent volatilization formed on high‐purity chemical vapor deposited ( CVD ) SiC nuclear‐grade / composites have been studied during high‐temperature 100% steam exposure. The environmental parameters interest were temperature from 1200°C to 1700°C, pressure 0.1 MPa flow velocities 0.23 145 cm/s. Scale was characterized via electron microscopy X‐ray diffractometry. Arrhenius dependence parabolic oxidation linear...
Radiation tolerance is determined by how effectively the microstructure can remove point defects produced irradiation. Engineered nanocrystalline SiC with a high-density of stacking faults (SFs) has significantly enhanced recombination interstitials and vacancies, leading to self-healing irradiation-induced defects. While single crystal readily undergoes an crystalline amorphous transformation at room temperature, nano-engineered SFs exhibits more than order magnitude increase in radiation...
