Abstract
A method for the quantitative phase analysis of textured corrosion for med ZrO2 films on zirconium alloys using pole figure data has been dev eloped. This method was then used to examine changes in the volume fra ction of the tetragonal and monoclinic phases of ZrO2 films grown on Z r-2.5% Nb as a function of heat treatments, oxide thickness and oxidiz ing environments.
