This doctoral research aims to investigate the potential for non-Arrhenius SCC behavior in Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) structural materials when exposed to representative in-service conditions. It will explore the interplay between microstructural features and environmental factors contributing to SCC. SCC testing will be conducted using dedicated high-temperature, high-pressure facilities within the Royce Institute to simulate nuclear environment conditions. The project will also benefit from access to state-of-the-art analytical techniques for electron microscopy. The findings of this research will provide valuable insights into the behavior of PWR structural materials under SCC conditions, informing future testing protocols and enhancing our understanding of SCC mechanisms. The outcomes will be instrumental in developing predictive models for SCC behavior in service, ultimately contributing to improved safety and reliability in nuclear power applications.
