W coating by vacuum plasma spray process and Cr coating by chromizing process were performed on
fusion low activation materials, JLF-1 ferritic steel and NIFS-HEAT-2 vanadium alloy. The present study
discusses feasibility of the coatings as anti-corrosion coating against fluoridation in Flibe for fusion low
activation materials. Coatings were characterized by microstructural analysis and examination on chem-ical stability by corrosion tests. The corrosion tests were conducted with H2O–47% HF solution at RT and
He–1% HF–0.06 H2O gas mixture at 823 K to simulate fluoridation and oxidation in Flibe. The coatings presented suppression of fluoride formation compared with JLF-1 or NIFS-HEAT-2, however weight loss due to WF6formation was induced, and much Cr2O3was formed.
