- Zircaloy-4, in three different metallurgical forms (stress relieved, recrystallized, and ?-quenched), was oxidized at 400¿̐ưC, in steam, up to 95 days. For each sample, the fraction of tetragonal zirconia was measured by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. These two techniques show the presence of several zones containing tetragonal zirconia: a zone rich in the oxide near the metal-oxide interface and an other zones with lower concentrations in the rest of the pre-transition layers. For the post-transition samples, the external sublayer contains only a small amount of tetragonal zirconia.
