For augment of a resource of operation and prevention of fracture of fuel elements casings which are subject to high stresses, corrosion and temperatures, it is offered to subject to preoxidizing and deposition of coatings. In this work processes of an oxidizing of Zr1Nb alloy are developed at temperatures 300-550оС in a wide range of oxygen pressures with prepumping-out to pressure 6,6х10-3 Pa. The better plan of a preliminary oxidizing which essentially differs from the plans given in patents of the Russian Federation № 2382120, № 2199607, № 2298049 is offered. It is shown, that the thickness and quality of the formed oxide depends on time of an oxidizing more, rather than from pressure of oxygen. Experiments have shown, that preliminary oxidizing fragments of products from zirconium alloys in optimum conditions leads to increasing limit of fluidity, strengths and stretch. Such mode of an oxidizing effectively protects zirconium alloys against corrosion in air at temperatures up to 500оC. Introduction into the film of elements of 5th group does not lead to substantial growth of corrosion resistance of zirconium. Protection of the zirconium products against oxidizing at temperatures more than 500оС can be ensured by the vacuum-arc coatings. On fragments fuel element tubes from alloy Zr1Nb coatings Cr, CrAlx, ZrN, ZrON, ZrOx, CrN, (Ti0.48Zr0.18Al0.17Nb0.09Y0.08)N have been formed and explored. Trials of samples from zirconium alloy with coatings at oxidizing in air were carried out at temperatures 500оС and 600оС within 100 hours, and at 800оС within 25 hours. Samples without coatings as a result of trials are oxidized and collapse with fall of oxide whereas coatings protect samples from degradation in course of trials. From all tested condensates the most effective for protection of zirconium products are coatings from chrome and its nitrides. Application of the developed technologies will allow to increase resource of zirconium alloys in more rigid conditions of operation.
