Abstract: Zirconium alloys are extensively utilized in reactor fuel cladding for their superior properties, including high corrosion resistance and low thermal neutron absorption cross-section and good mechanical properties. However, the main cause of failure in zirconium alloy cladding during reactor operation is its susceptibility to corrosion, a subject extensively researched. As the service environment of zirconium alloy, the water environment plays a role in inhibiting the corrosion of materials except the transfer of heat energy, and the optimization of water chemistry is one of the most important measures to improve the economy and safety of the reactor. This paper reviews the influence of water chemistry on the corrosion resistance of zirconium alloys, and discusses how different chemical parameters affect this process. It provides insights into how water chemistry affects zirconium alloy's corrosion resistance, offers guidance on the future research directions of reactor water chemistry and zirconium alloy materials.
