In nuclear power plants in Japan, seawater is used as the cooling water. The inner surface of piping for circulating the seawater to the cooling system of each facility is lined with polymeric materials such as rubber, polyethylene (PE) or epoxy resin to prevent corrosion caused by the seawater. In recent years, cases of deterioration caused by aging of the lining materials have occurred, such as cavitation erosion in high flow velocity sections, slurry abrasion, and cracking due to the deterioration of p...
