The Fukushima Daiichi Accident in 2011, which was the result of the Great East Japan Earthquake, tsunami, and prolonged station blackout, increased the focus on developing accident tolerant fuel cladding (ATFC), especially on the use of protective coatings. Coatings have been widely used in a variety of industries, including automotive, aerospace, and nuclear to improve corrosion resistance, enhance hardness and physical properties, and reduce wear. In an accident scenario, a coating may aid in reducing the oxidation kinetics and hydrogen evolution rates. The present study investigates the benefits that physical vapour deposited nitride-based coatings may have for ATFC.
