Nuclear Corrosion Body (IMAGE)
Caption
As illustrated in the figure, LRO creates continuous networks of chromium atoms throughout the alloy. These pathways create streamlined paths from the external surface, where the nichrome comes in contact with the molten salt, to the internal structure of the metal, significantly accelerating corrosion compared to alloys using SRO or random solid solutions (RSS).
