A molten salt reactor (MSR) has considerably attracted attention due to its several advantages for the safety and efficiency over the light water reactors. Because the structural material in MSR is contacted with high-temperature liquid fuel during long-term, the excellent material for corrosion resistance is required to be applied in MSR. In this study, we evaluated the corrosion resistance for alloy 600 and 617, which are the nickel-based materials, in KCl molten salt at 800ºC for 100 h under Ar atmosphere containing less than 1 ppm of moisture and oxygen. After the corrosion experiments of alloy 600 and 617, the amount of the weight loss for them caused by the KCl molten salt were determined. In addition, the variation in the crystal structure, surface morphology, and elemental distribution was examined using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.
