The solubility of metals in Pb17Li liquid alloy

Compatibility of reduced activation ferritic martensitic steel JLF-1 with liquid metals Li and Pb–17Li

“…It is known that the corrosion became larger when the concentration of nitrogen in Li was higher [23,24,37]. The formation of the ternary nitride attributed to accelerate the corrosion.…”

“…The trend was due to that the concentrations of Fe, Cr and W, which [17], (c) exposure to carbon doped Li using Fe-9Cr crucible for 287 h, (d) exposure to oxygen doped Li using Fe-9Cr crucible for 750 h, (e) exposure to nitrogen doped Li using Fe-9Cr crucible for 250 h, (f) exposure to mixing flow of Li using Fe-9Cr crucible for 250 h [14,15], (g) exposure to C powder using JLF-1 crucible for 500 h, (h) exposure to Li3N powder using JLF-1 crucible for 500 h, (i) exposure to Li2O powder using JLF-1 crucible for 500 h, (j) exposure to Pb-17Li using JLF-1 crucible for 750 h, (k) exposure to Pb-17Li using JLF-1 crucible for 3000 h and (l) exposure to mixing flow of Pb-17Li for 250 h using Fe-9Cr crucible. [37] were dissolved from the steel surface, reached to the solubility in the Li. The results of SEM/EDS analysis on the tested specimen surface showed the depletion of Cr and W in the Li (Fig.…”

Ferritic steel-blanket systems integration R&D—Compatibility assessment

“…The solubility values of the major steel elements are shown in Table 3 [32][33][34]. The solubility value of nickel in lead is very high, suggesting that austenitic Fig.…”

Corrosion behavior of CLAM steel in static and flowing LiPb at 480°C and 550°C

“…3, it should be indicated that the darker the color in the area, the higher the concentration of the dissolved constituents. For the experiments performed in 304S crucible, because of higher solubility of Ni in liquid LiPb than Fe, Cr elements [19,20] (using the same symbols for Fe, Cr in Fig. 3 because of similar solubility at the same temperature), the pre-leaching of Ni elements may lead to the permeation of liquid LiPb to matrix and also rapid dissolution of Fe, Cr in the liquid LiPb, after the saturation of these metallic elements in the crucible-LiPb boundary layer (Fig.…”
