MAX phases are a family of damage-tolerant structural materials used in the nuclear energy industry. Ti2SC phase has shown good corrosion resistance to concentrated hydrofluoric acid, potentially making it suitable for use in molten salt reactors.
MAX phases are a large family of damage-tolerant structural materials for the nuclear energy industry. The anti-corrosive property to the tritium fluoride (TF) produced by the neutron irradiation of FLiBe is an issue for the MAX phases applied to the molten salt reactors (MSRs). Herein, the Ti2SC phase was used for the first time to evaluate the corrosion resistance to the concentrated hydrofluoric acid as the simulated service condition. The comprehensive characterizations including weight-loss curves, X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy were employed to analyze the corrosion behavior and mechanism of Ti2SC in comparison with Ti3AlC2 and Ti3SiC2. The good intrinsic anti-corrosive property of Ti2SC was originated from the strong Ti-S bond. Considering the acceptable preliminary performance at low displacement per atom (dpa), the Ti2SC probably has a potential to be used as the structural material in the MSRs.
