Hydrogen Effects on Cladding Performance during Simulated Loss of Coolant Accident Testing

Fresh Zircaloy cladding segments were charged with hydrogen and subjected to simulated Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) conditions to assess the impact of hydrogen on the cladding mechanical performance and rupture resistance. The cladding rupture temperature decreased by 10 °C for every 100 wppm H added into the system for two different internal pressurization cases. Post-test analysis showed a loss of ductility with increasing hydrogen content, evident through decreased balloon sizes, smaller rupture openings, and sharper rupture interfaces. Digital image correlation was used to map the cladding strain in situ for two cladding segments. An elevated intermediate temperature uniform strain was visible for the hydride cladding, occurring prior to the decreased ductility during balloon and rupture determined from posttest fractography and microscopy. The thermal stability of Zr alloys as a function of hydrogen concentration and the thermal stability of Zr hydride as a function of temperature are likely responsible for the uniform deformation behavior at intermediate temperatures. The present framework for rapid assessment of hydrogen effects on cladding rupture can be utilized as an initial comparison to high burnup cladding thermomechanical response to a LOCA, where local regions may contain high concentrations of precipitated Zr hydride phase.

Some inelastic effects of thermal cycling on yttria-stabilized zirconia

The effects of inelastic behavior of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) materials were analyzed. The results show these materials to be sensitive to small changes in temperature and are supported by measurements of inelastic behavior in disc and bar specimens at temperatures as low as 1010 C (1850 F). At higher thermomechanical loadings, the test specimens can deform to strains above 1 percent.

Modulating Poly(oligocyclobutane) Properties Through Backbone Modifications

Poly(1,n′-divinyl)oligocyclobutane (pDVOCB) has emerged as a class of poly(cycloolefin) that is amenable to chemical recycling and demonstrates promising thermomechanical properties. However, their high melting temperatures coupled with insolubility makes melt processing challenging due to thermo-oxidation of internal alkenes. To address these issues, we describe a series of polymers incorporating modifications to the pDVOCB backbone and analyze the effects on material stability and processability. Intentional migration of the internal 1,2-disubstituted alkenes to an exocyclic trisubstituted position yields isomerized pDVOCB (IpDVOCB) which exhibits a depression of thermal transitions by up to 50 °C. Conversely, elimination of stereoirregularity between enchained DVOCB oligomers through alkene saturation yields hydrogenated pDVOCB (HpDVOCB), resulting in elevated thermal transitions by up to 30 °C. Furthermore, these shifts are attributed to changes in crystal defect density which is strongly influenced by chain stereoregularity. Understanding these behaviors guides future polymer design and expands the control and use of this new class of recyclable poly(cycloolefin)s.

Synthesis and thermomechanical characteristics of zwitterionic poly(arylene ether sulfone) copolymers

Charge-containing polymeric materials have been widely studied for a range of applications. The fundamental relationships between the charge species, charge density, and the microscale morphology of charge-containing polymers are critical for defining the application in which they may be used. In this work, a series of thermoplastic poly(arylene ether sulfone) (PAES) copolymers with controllable sulfobetaine charge contents (0~100 mol%) and high molecular weights (Mw ~ 65 kDa) were prepared. All the zwitterionic PAESs synthesized showed thermal stability up to 250 °C. DSC and tensile tests showed a decreased T g and mechanical strength with the incorporation of increasing charge density, which suggests a plasticization effect by the charged group. Electron microscopy and X-ray scattering data confirmed the absence of microphase separation in the ion-containing random copolymer system, which corroborated with the observation of a single T g for all zwitterionic copolymers studied. Furthermore, the relative hydrophilicity of the samples was evaluated by water uptake measurements, which revealed that the water uptake of the zwitterionic PAESs can reach up to 64% for the 72 mol% zwitterion copolymer while the free-standing film in the wet state still maintains a Young's modulus of 185 MPa. Here, the thermoplastic charge-containing copolymers in this work demonstrated potential for applications such as coatings or water purification membranes, in which balancing hydrophilicity, processibility, and thermomechanical performance are important.

Addition-type polyimides from solutions of monomeric reactants

The monomeric reactants approach was used to fabricate addition-type polyimide/graphite fiber composites with improved mechanical properties and thermal stability characteristics over those of composites derived from addition-type amide acid prepolymers. A screening study of 24 different monomer combinations was performed. The results of a more extensive investigation of a selected number of monomer combinations showed that the combination providing the best thermomechanical properties was 5-norbornene-2.3-dicarboxylic acid monomethyl ester/4,4(')-methylenedianiline/3,3(')4,4(')-benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid dimethyl ester at a molar ratio of 2/3.09/2.09.

Enhancing surface activity and durability in triple conducting electrode for protonic ceramic electrochemical cells

With the material system operating at lower temperatures, protonic ceramic electrochemical cells (PCECs) can offer high energy efficiency and reliable performance for both power generation and hydrogen production, making them a promising technology for reversible energy cycling. However, PCEC faces technical challenges, particularly regarding electrode activity and durability under high current density operations. To address these challenges, we introduce a nano-architecture oxygen electrode characterized by high porosity and triple conductivity, designed to enhance catalytic activity and interfacial stability through a self-assembly approach, while maintaining scalability. Electrochemical cells incorporating this advanced electrode demonstrate robust performance, achieving a peak power density of 1.50 W cm −2 at 600 °C in fuel cell mode and a current density of 5.04 A cm −2 at 1.60 V in electrolysis mode, with enhanced stability on transient operations and thermal cycles. The underlying mechanisms are closely related to the improved surface activity and mass transfer due to the dual features of the electrode structure. Additionally, the enhanced interfacial bonding between the oxygen electrode and electrolyte contributes to increased durability and thermomechanical integrity. This study underscores the critical importance of optimizing electrode microstructure to achieve a balance between surface activity and durability.

Further development and characterization of VM-103, a NASA wrought cobalt base alloy

The data obtained during this and previous programs indicate that the VM-103 has useful strength at temperatures as high 2200 F (1204 C), and can be considered as an alternate for other wrought superalloys such as L-605. The addition of 10 percent nickel to the standard composition improves both the hot and cold fabricability, ductility, impact strength, and metallurgical stability, while it only slightly reduces strength properties. Electroslag re-melting was effective in significantly increasing the fabricability of vacuum induction method VM-103, both with and without the 10 percent nickel addition. A specification for wrought VM-103 was developed and is included. Although thermomechanical processing improves lower temperature properties, no improvement occurs at temperatures at or above 2000 F (1093 C).

Polysulfamates as “Macroisosteres” of Polyurethanes with Improved Degradability

Abstract Addressing the environmental persistence of plastics requires the development of next‐generation polymers that combine high performance with enhanced degradability. Progress toward this grand challenge has been impeded, in part, by the absence of a general blueprint for the macromolecular design of such materials. Herein, we introduce a “macroisostere” design strategy, where the carbonyl group (–CO–) in polyurethanes (PUs) is replaced with a sulfonyl group (–SO 2 –), resulting in a virtually unknown family of polymers called polysulfamates. This approach, inspired by the use of bioisosteres in drug discovery, aims to preserve key interchain interactions that contribute to thermomechanical performance while enhancing the hydrolytic lability of the polymer backbone. The optimization of a Sulfur(VI) Fluoride Exchange (SuFEx) polymerization allowed the synthesis of ten polysulfamates structurally analogous to common PUs. Comparative analysis of one PU and its polysulfamate analog showed that this isosteric substitution increases thermal stability, slightly lowers the glass transition temperature, and retains similar hardness and reduced Young's modulus. Notably, the S(VI)‐based polysulfamate demonstrated significantly enhanced hydrolytic degradability. These results highlight the potential of the “macroisostere” approach as a generalizable strategy for designing high‐performance, degradable alternatives to traditional plastics.

Status Update on the Development of Transducers and Bonding Techniques for Enabling Acoustic Measurements of Damage in Microreactor Components

This report provides an overview of potential sensors and sensor-bonding techniques to enable the online acoustic interrogation of microreactor components and enhance structural health monitoring capabilities. The report focuses primarily on optical fiber–based acoustic sensors and describes initial experimental progress toward the deployment of these sensors for microreactor applications. The general approach is to monitor the resonant frequencies of microreactor components and search for evidence of structural defects that could indicate imminent failure. If properly identified, then the components could be repaired during the next reactor outage to prevent costly unplanned shutdowns. The ability to monitor the structural health of components could also reduce the need for time-consuming visual inspections and reduce staffing to improve microreactor economic viability. Increased sensor density is also one of the first steps to moving toward eventual semiautonomous operation. The expected microreactor conditions in which acoustic sensors must survive are characterized, including temperatures, neutron fluences, thermomechanical strains, and vibrational frequencies. Optical fiber–based acoustic sensors are identified as an attractive candidate for acoustic monitoring because of their high accuracy, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and resiliency in high-temperature, high-radiation environments. Optical fiber–based intrinsic sensors, such as type-II fiber-Bragg gratings and Fabry-Pérot Cavities (FPCs), are particularly attractive for a microreactor environment because of their high temperature stability, and FPCs also enable higher frequency interrogation with a lower sensitivity to radiation-induced drift. This report describes multiple interrogation systems, but the best interrogation system for a given situation will depend on the specific microreactor application, including the desired acoustic vibrational amplitudes, modes, and resonant frequencies. Initial experiments included fabricating three FPCs, tack-welding these FPCs to stainless-steel pipes or rods and performing room-temperature acoustic sensing tests to capture the vibrational frequency content. Peaks were identified in the measured frequency spectra and compared with the theoretical fundamental frequencies obtained from Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Two of the three FPCs measured vibrational frequencies that generally matched those obtained from theory. Future work will include similar testing on pipes or other microreactor components with intentional flaws to evaluate the ability to determine changes in resonant frequencies. Finally, these tests will be repeated at high temperatures, potentially with an applied thermomechanical stress, to include environmental conditions similar to those for a microreactor application.

Affordable, Robust Ceramic Joining Technology (ARCJoinT) Given 1999 R and D 100 Award

Advanced ceramics and fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites with high strength and toughness, good thermal conductivity, thermal shock resistance, and oxidation resistance are needed for high-temperature structural applications in advanced high-efficiency and high-performance engines, space propulsion components, and land-based systems. The engineering designs of these systems require the manufacturing of large parts with complex shapes, which are either quite expensive or impossible to fabricate. In many instances, it is more economical to build complex shapes by joining together simple geometrical shapes. Thus, joining has been recognized as an enabling technology for the successful utilization of advanced ceramics and fiber-reinforced composite components in high-temperature applications. However, such joints must retain their structural integrity at high temperatures and must have mechanical strength and environmental stability comparable to those of the bulk materials. In addition, the joining technique should be robust, practical, and reliable. ARCJoinT, which is based on the reaction-forming approach, is unique in terms of producing joints with tailorable microstructures. The formation of joints by this approach is attractive since the thermomechanical properties of the joint interlayer can be tailored to be very close to those of the base materials. In addition, high-temperature fixturing is not needed to hold the parts at the infiltration temperature. The joining process begins with the application of a carbonaceous mixture in the joint area, holding the items to be joined in a fixture, and curing at 110 to 120 C for 10 to 20 min. This step fastens the pieces together. Then, silicon or a silicon alloy in tape, paste, or slurry form is applied around the joint region and heated to 1250 to 1425 C (depending on the type of infiltrant) for 10 to 15 min. The molten silicon or silicon-refractory metal alloy reacts with carbon to form silicon carbide with controllable amounts of silicon and other phases as determined by the alloy composition. Joint thickness can be readily controlled through adjustments of the properties of the carbonaceous paste and the applied fixturing force. The photograph shows various shapes of silicon-carbide-based ceramics and fiberreinforced composites that have been joined using ARCJoinT. Thermomechanical and thermochemical characterization of joints is underway for a wide variety of silicon-carbidebased advanced ceramics and fiber-reinforced composites under the hostile environments that will be encountered in engine applications. ARCJoinT, which was developed by researchers at the NASA Glenn Research Center at Lewis Field, received R&D Magazine's prestigious R&D 100 Award in 1999.

C–H Functionalization of Polyolefins to Access Reprocessable Polyolefin Thermosets

Upcycling plastic waste into reprocessable materials with performance-advantaged properties would contribute to the development of a circular plastics economy. Here, we modify branched polyolefins and postconsumer polyethylene through a versatile C–H functionalization approach using thiosulfonates as a privileged radical group transfer functionality. Cross-linking the functionalized polyolefins with polytopic amines provided dynamically cross-linked polyolefin networks enabled by associative bond exchange of diketoenamine functionality. A combination of resonant soft X-ray scattering and grazing incidence X-ray scattering revealed hierarchical phase morphology in which diketoenamine-rich microdomains phase-separate within amorphous regions between polyolefin crystallites. The combination of dynamic covalent cross-links and microphase separation results in useful and improved mechanical properties, including a ~4.5-fold increase in toughness, a reduction in creep deformation at temperatures relevant to use, and high-temperature structural stability compared to the parent polyolefin. The dynamic nature of diketoenamine cross-links provides stress relaxation at elevated temperatures, which enabled iterative reprocessing of the dynamic covalent polymer network with little cycle-to-cycle property fade. Finally, the ability to convert polyolefin waste into a reprocessable thermoformable material with attractive thermomechanical properties provides additional optionality for upcycling to enable future circularity.

High-Temperature-Performance Cyanate Ester Composites with Carboranes

Cyanate ester (CE) is an important class of materials among high-temperature performance thermosets. It is used in aerospace launch vehicles, heat sinks, booms, and trusses of satellites etc. due to its high glass transition temperatures (>220°C), excellent thermal stability, and low flammability. Current approaches to improve the thermal stability of CE include incorporation of siloxanes or phosphorus- based flame retardants (PFRs). In this work, we have explored boron-based hydroxy (PD) and epoxy (EP) functionalized carborane additives to improve the thermal properties of CE. Carborane fillers were solvent blended at various mass loadings in the resin and cured to study their effect on thermal properties. PD and EP carboranes react with CE to form iminocarbonate and oxazolidinone linkages respectively. Cure kinetics studies at different wt% loadings explained that carboranes catalyze the curing reaction by reducing curing activation energy by about 54% and 26% for 10 wt% loadings of PD and EP carboranes respectively. In addition, carborane-filled cyanate ester (CE) nanocomposites demonstrate an exceptionally high thermal stability as compared to the pristine resin in air and inert environment. Our thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) experiments show that the ultimate char yield of the resin can be increased from 0% to as high as 76% and 82% with 30 wt% PD and EP carborane loading respectively at 1000 °C in air. The initial degradation temperature T d;5 of the composites decreased with increasing carborane loadings in both air and argon. For instance, T d;5 for CE was 465 and 471.6 °C in argon and air while that for P20 was 437.4 and 452.1 °C. Modulated TGA studies gave evidence of the effect of carboranes on degradation kinetics and the mechanism of the resin in air and inert environment. The effect of bonding between carboranes and CE at various loadings on the thermal expansion of the matrix was also studied using Thermomechanical Analyzer (TMA). PD carborane reduced the T g for P20 to about 225 °C while CE had T g >350 °C.

Handbook on the Material Properties of Yttrium Hydride for High Temperature Moderator Applications

Yttrium hydride is an optimal choice for a high-temperature moderator material in advanced thermal neutron spectrum reactors that require small core volumes. A complete database of the thermomechanical properties of yttrium hydride is not yet available, although it is much needed to understand and predict the moderator performance during service in reactors. This milestone report presents the properties of unirradiated bulk yttrium hydride as a function of hydrogen concentration—including density, crystal structure, specific heat capacity, thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, hardness, elastic/shear moduli, Poisson’s ratio, fracture strength, microstructure, and thermal stability. This information provides a baseline measurement for the subsequent neutron irradiation response study of yttrium hydride. The recommended empirical treatment of the data is suggested. In addition, other properties (i.e., hydrogen retention, thermal hydrogen migration, and irradiation response) requiring investigation are discussed. Also included are the Preliminary post-irradiation examination (PIE) data of yttrium hydride irradiated at 600 and 900°C to 0.1 dpa in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR). The thermophysical properties have insignificant change following this low dpa irradiation for both irradiation temperatures.
