Safer operation, better fuel efficiency and lower waste mark lead-cooled nuclear power as a potentially dramatic shift from the water-cooled nuclear stations the world has relied on since the mid 20th ...
A breakthrough study from KTH Royal Institute of Technology has quantified exactly how quickly and subtly liquid lead corrodes stainless steel, offering a data-driven path toward more durable nuclear ...
Liquid metal corrosion remains a critical challenge in the design and operation of fast reactors. The aggressive nature of molten coolants such as lead and lead–bismuth eutectic can induce a range of ...
