Glancing angle X-ray diffraction （GAXRD） was employed to examine the phase transformation due to the copper ion implantation. The potcntiodynamic polarization technique was used to evaluate the aqueous corrosion resistance of implanted ZIRLO alloy in a 1 mol/L H2SO4 solution. It was found that a significant improvement was achieved in the aqueous corrosion resistance of ZIRLO alloy implanted with copper ions when the fluence is 5×10^16 ions/cm^2. When the fluence is 1×10^16 or 1×10^17 ions/cm^2, the corrosion resistance of implanted sanaples was bad. Finally, the mechanism of the corrosion behavior of copper-implanted ZIRLO alloy was discussed.展开更多
