Atomistic mechanism of corrosion-induced grain boundary migration in NiCr alloys in molten FLiNaK

Corrosion of Ni-Cr structural alloys in molten fluoride salts is a persistent material degradation problem, yet the atomistic role of grain boundaries in this process remains poorly understood.

Corrosion of Ni-Cr structural alloys in molten fluoride salts is a persistent material degradation problem, yet the atomistic role of grain boundaries in this process remains poorly understood. Here we use reactive molecular dynamics to investigate corrosion of NiCr alloys in…
