Эволюция дефектной структуры циркониевого сплава Zr-1Nb после холодной прокатки

Abstract

Zirconium alloys are actively used in nuclear power engineering. During the operation of these alloys, it is necessary to know the change in structural, mechanical and physical characteristics when using material in corrosive environments. In this regard, it is necessary to study the occurrence of certain defects in the material and their effect. Such defects include dislocations. This study is aimed to study the processes of the appearance and distribution of dislocations in a material by positron annihilation spectroscopy. As a result of this work, the lifetime of positrons in the dislocation of zirconium was determined and the character of dislocation distribution at different degrees of deformation was presented.
