DEFINITION

a trade name for a family of zirconium alloys used primarily as cladding for nuclear fuel rods

EXAMPLE SENTENCES

The nuclear power plant ordered high quality zircalloy tubes to encase the uranium fuel pellets inside the reactor core safely. Engineers selected zircalloy for its excellent corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption properties which are essential for efficient nuclear reactor operation. The zircalloy cladding prevents radioactive fission products from escaping into the coolant while allowing neutrons to pass through the reactor core. Researchers tested new zircalloy compositions under extreme temperatures to improve the safety and durability of nuclear fuel assemblies during potential accident scenarios. The manufacturing facility specialized in producing zircalloy components that met strict international standards for use in commercial nuclear power generation facilities.
