| Abstract Scope |
Stainless steel 316 (SS 316) has garnered significant attention from the nuclear industry as a promising structural material for deployment in advanced reactors, particularly the Molten Chloride Fast Reactor and fluoride salt-cooled high-temperature reactor. One of the key advancements that has facilitated the exploration of this material is additive manufacturing (AM), which allows complex designs that were previously unattainable using traditional manufacturing methods. In this work, we compare the molten salt corrosion of conventional SS 316 and AM SS 316 in static chloride salts at high temperature. In addition, the stress effects on corrosion behavior of two types of SS 316 have also been studied and compared, which provides valuable information of the behavior of SS 316H, under molten salt corrosion conditions. |
