Investigation of the Technical Feasibility of Cold Extrusion for Zircaloy-2 Tubing Production. Technical Progress Report

Description: The feasibility of cold extrusion for Zircaloy-2 tube production was studied and the basic feasibility of cold extruding Zircaloy-2 was indicated. Lubrication systems, composed of a lubricant and a conversion coating, were developed and evaluated for the current application. A fluoride-phosphate base coating and a number of promising lubricants were selected for actual extrusion tests. Bars of Zircaloy-2 were successfully cold-extruded to reductions of 50, 65, and 80%. The best lubricants provi… more

Alloy Films Deposited by Electroplating as Precursors for Protective Oxide Coatings on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells Metallic Interconnect Materials

Description: The successful development of stainless steel interconnects for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) may be the materials breakthrough that makes SOFC technology truly commercial. Many of the ferritic stainless steels, however, suffer from a relatively high area specific resistance (ASR) after long exposure times at temperature and the Cr in the native oxide can evaporate and contaminate other cell components. Conductive coatings that resist oxide scale growth and chromium eva… more
