A two-year Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in-house study was launched in November 2006 to evaluate various coating materials that may be applied as one-coat systems to steel bridges. A total of eight test materials plus two control systems, a 3-coat and a 2-coat, were applied over near-white steel test panels (SSPC-SP10). Their performance has been evaluated for 20 months using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, surface failure characterizations, rust creepage at scribe, pull-off adhesion, and changes of color and gloss.
After the Fukushima accident there has been a large push globally for accident tolerant fuels (ATF) to increase the grace period during an accident, that is, the time during which operators may be able to avoid major consequences by undertaking mitigating actions. At Fukushima, the oxidation of the Zircaloy cladding produced hydrogen gas, that contributed to the failure of the primary containment. A concept for ATF is to coat zirconium-based cladding with chromium to inhibit the oxidation of the cladding and reduce hydrogen production.
