Construction of a chemical vapour deposition reactor and the deposition of ZrC layers

Biira, Saphina (University of Pretoria, 2017)

Generation IV high temperature nuclear reactors use TRISO (tristructural isotropic) particles for containment of radioactive fission products. In these particles silicon carbide (SiC) is the main barrier for containing ...
Zirconium carbide (ZrC) synthesised via chemical vapour deposition (CVD) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) and phase formation of iridium (Ir) films deposited on ZrC at relatively low temperatures

Alawad, Bilal Abbas Bilal (University of Pretoria, 2019)

In this thesis,zirconium carbide (ZrC) layers were deposited on graphite substrates using a CVD reactor at temperatures ranging from 1250 °C to 1450 °C in steps of 50 °C. The deposited layers were characterised by XRD, ...
