Abstract  

The molten salt reactor (MSR) is an important reactor type in Generation IV nuclear systems. However, the high-temperature, corrosive, and irradiation-coupled environment of MSRs compromises the chemical stability and service reliability of structural materials. Nickel-based alloys, featuring an fcc matrix with high thermal stability and low chemical activity, are promising candidates but remain susceptible to selective corrosion dissolution, Te-induced corrosion cracking, and irradiation-accelerated corrosion. This review summarizes the multifield-coupled failure mechanisms of Ni-based alloys for MSRs and outlines a four-dimensional modification framework of “composition optimization, secondary phase regulation, grain boundary regulation, and coating protection”. Lowering the Cr content and optimizing the Mo / W ratios collectively suppress selective dissolution; secondary phase/oxide dispersion strengthened particles trap defects and block diffusion; grain boundary engineering suppresses Te penetration by increasing the fraction of low-Σ boundaries; Ni-W or silicon carbide coatings provide terminal protection. Future efforts should focus on in situ multifield characterization, machine learning-based design, and environment-adaptive regulation of Ni-based alloys to achieve their long-term reliability and engineering application in MSRs.
