The nuclear power industry is an important part of China's clean energy. As of August 2024, China's nuclear power under construction and approved installed capacity reached 57GW, and it is expected that by 2035, the proportion of nuclear power generation will reach 10%. The nuclear power industry has huge demand for highly reliable and safe elastic components, especially in nuclear island equipment and conventional island equipment.
Disc springs and wave springs for nuclear power need to withstand extreme working conditions in nuclear island equipment, and at the same time they need to have excellent radiation and high temperature resistance to ensure the long-term and stable operation of the equipment.
