Abstract
The oxidation processes of zirconium at 600-850 deg C were studied. A micrographic and radiocrystallographic analysis of the oxide layers formed at the surface of the metal was carried out. The kinetic results, weight gains as function nf time, were completed by the study of oxygen diffusion through the oxide layer formed and in the underlying metal. (auth)
