7 Swelling Due to Hydrogen Pickup Volume vs. H concentration in hydrides increases non-linearly tending to a plateau at ZrH 2 ZrH 2 ZrH H in solution Zr Hydride 7
8 Gibbs Free Energy of H Solution in Zr H mostly in tetrahedral sites Effect of strain Like sponge : Solubility higher under tensile strain, lower under compression Computed DH = kj/mol Experimental: to -64 kj/mol 8
9 H Solubility in a-zr Solubility of H increases with temperature Computed Experiment Terminal solubility Computed terminal solubility: S[wt-ppm] = exp(-5450/T[K]) at 300 ºC: S = 41 wt-ppm at 25 ºC: S = wt-ppm 9

14 Vacancies and Interstitials in Zirconium 14
15 Vacancies in Zr DV V 1 V V 0 V 1 = V 0 DV + V Zr lattice shrinks around vacancies: by removing 1% of Zr atoms, the volume shrinks by 0.44%; counting also the removed Zr atoms, the total volume V 1 of the system increases by 0.56% The shrinkage is anisotropic: 0.25% in the a-direction and 0.43% in the c-direction. The vacancy formation energy is computed as 193 kj/mol
16 Trapping of H in Vacancies A single vacancy can trap up to 9 hydrogen atoms 16
17 Self-Interstitials in Zr DV V 0 V 1 = V 0 + DV Zr lattice expands around self-interstitials: by adding 1% of interstitial Zr atoms, the volume increases by 1.02 to 1.18% depending on the location of the interstitial; the expansion is between 0.02 and 0.18% for a constant number of Zr atoms The expansion is anisotropic; for interstitials in the basal plane there the lattice expands principally in the a directions. The formation energy of Zr interstitials at octahedral and tetrahedral sites is computed as 315 and 331 kj/mol, respectively. The binding energy of H near an interstitial is 14 kj/mol less than in defect-free Zr. H is repelled from self interstitials.
18 Formation of dislocation loops, impact of hydrogen 18
19 Formation of Loops a [0001] c c-loop a [10-10] [10-10] a a-loop [10-10] [11-20] [11-20] a-loop 19
20 Vacancy c-loops A B A Simulations indicate that vacancy c-loops collapse into cone-like 3-D structures Upon collapse the system shrinks in the c-direction 20
21 Vacancy c-loop with H Hydrogen atoms are attracted into vacancy loops and can retard or prevent collapse
22 Interstitial c-loops Crowdions are more stable than small (~5 Å) interstitial c-loops Larger interstitial c-loops are lens-shaped In the presence of interstitial c-loops hydrogen is most stable at the rim and thus has only marginal influence on this type of loop 22
23 Role of Dissolved Hydrogen Hydrogen mostly affects vacancy loops in c-loops H can retard the collapse, but collapsed loops are thermodynamically more stable Collapse of H-rich c-loop can lead to supersaturated Zr leading to nucleation of hydride H in <10-10> a-loop prevents collapse, thus causing an effective expansion of the lattice in the a-direction, which would not be present in H-free Zr or if H cannot reach the a-loops H has relatively little effect on interstitial loops 23
24 Diffusion vacancies, interstitials, H and O 24
25 Diffusion Self-interstitial diffusion: FAST, anisotropic (a>c) Hydrogen diffusion: D H = 1.13x10-7 e -42/(RT) (m 2 /s) MEDIUM, isotropic Vacancy diffusion: D basal = 8.62x10-6 e -69/(RT) (m 2 /s) D axial = 9.87x10-6 e -73/(RT) (m 2 /s) SLOW, isotropic Barrier heights in kj/mol 25

28 Effect of Cr, Ni, Fe, Sn, Nb; O 28
29 Volume Effect of Alloying 29
30 Effect of Alloying on Hydride Stability Alloying elements impede the formation of hydrides, because they are less stable inside a hydride than in solution Sn has the largest effect at high H concentrations 30
31 Surface Segregation of Alloying Elements Impurity prefers surface Impurity prefers bulk Sn and Ni have significant thermodynamic driving force to segregate to surface Fe and Cr have smaller driving force Nb prefers bulk M. Christensen, T. M. Angeliu, J. D. Ballard, J. Vollmer, R. Najafabadi, and E. Wimmer, J. Nucl. Mat. 404, 121 (2010) 31
32 Effect of Alloying Elements on Interstitial Diffusion from ab-initio Substitutional Cr, Fe, and Ni exchange position with interstitial Zr and become fast interstitial diffusers Interstitial Cr and Fe diffuse anisotropically with fast motion along c-axis; for Ni anisotropic diffusion is less pronounced Nb remains on substitutional site and retards interstitial Zr diffusion Substitutional Sn has no pronounced effect on interstitial Zr diffusion 32
33 Self interstitial diffusion in presence of Fe, Cr and Ni from molecular dynamics Substitutional Cr, Fe, and Ni exchange position with interstitial Zr Initial rapid diffusion of Fe, Cr, and Ni mainly in the c-direction The alloying elements start to cluster thereby forming a precursor of an intermetallic phase, which halts the diffusion 33
34 Self Interstitial diffusion in presence of Nb and Sn from molecular dynamics Nb stops diffusion of self interstitials The diffusion of self interstitial atoms is impeded by Nb and, to a lesser extent, by Sn. 34
35 Self interstitial diffusion in presence of Sn from molecular dynamics a-direction c-direction Diffusion of self interstitial atoms is anisotropic: faster in basal plane The diffusion of self interstitial atoms is empeded by Sn at low temperatures. At high temperatures there is little effect on self interstitial diffusion 35

Volume effect (%) for 1 wt% Tendency to segregate to surface (kj/mol) Tendency to segregate to grain boundary Attracts H (kj/mol) (+ means repulsion) Attracts vacancy (kj/mol) (+ means repulsion) Attracts interstitial Zr (kj/mol) (* = exchange) -270 * -350 * -273 * Effect on diffusion of interstitial Zr Fast-c Fast-c Fast-c pin retard small Effect on diffusion of vacancy retard retard small retard small Effect on hydride formation Alloying elements retard hydride formation, most for high H content Effect on a-loop formation diminish Zr interstitials reaching a-loops due to exchange impedes int. loops retards int. loops Effect on c-loop formation enriches c-loops with alloying elements impedes int. loops retards int. loops 36
37 Scenario for Loop Formation interstitial c-loop vacancy c- loop vacancy interstitial Zr a-loops perfect crystalline Zr vacancies and interstitials; lattice expands isotropic diffusion of vacancies and faster diffusion of interstitials in the a-direction should lead to c-loops being dominantly vacancy loops and a-loops more interstitial loops c-loops c-loops a-loops a-loops small net lattice contraction after collapse of vacancy c-loops, expansion in a-direction due to interstitial a-loops H in vacancy a-loops can prevent collapse: more expansion in a- direction 37
38 Effect of Fe, Cr, Ni Fe interstitial Fe c-loops a-loops vacancies and interstitials; lattice expands Fe removes interstitial Zr by exchange fast diffusion of interstitial Fe in c-direction fills vacancies, leading to smaller vacancy loops and Fe-decorated interstitial loops: overall smaller effect 38
39 Effect of Nb Nb c-loops a-loops vacancies and interstitials; lattice expands slower formation of interstitial loops due to Nb-induced slowdown of interstitial Zr diffusion, less expansion in a-direction; faster vacancy diffusion and Frenkel pair recombination possibly impedes formation of interstitial a-loops 39
40 Effect of Sn Sn Sn tends to segregate to surfaces and may help in the formation of protective oxide layers and diffusion barrier of H If atomically dispersed, Sn can retard the diffusion of self interstitial atoms Sn inhibits the formation of hydrides 40
41 Summary Present atomistic simulations using the MedeA software environment provide deeper insight and improved, quantitative materials property data: H in pure Zr, vacancies, self interstitials: anisotropic deformations Solubility of H in Zr, terminal solubility Volumetric, thermodynamic, and elastic properties of hydrides as a function of composition Interaction of H with alloying (impurity) elements Fe, Cr, Ni, Nb, Sn; O Inhibition of hydride formation by alloying (impurity) elements Vacancy and interstitial diffusion and loop formation: anisotropy of interstitial diffusion plays key role Impact of H on the collapse of dislocation loops and nucleation of hydrides Effect of alloying elements on diffusivity of H, vacancies and self interstitials: Nb stops interstitial diffusion The present work establishes a firmer basis for thermodynamic, kinetic, and micromechanical models
