    Abstract: <p>Supercritical water (SCW) is the intended heat transfer fluid and potential neutron moderator in the proposed GEN-IV Supercritical Water Cooled Reactor (SCWR). The oxidative environment poses challenges in choosing appropriate design materials, and the</p><p>behaviour of SCW within crevices of the passivation layer is needed for developing a corrosion control strategy to… more
