In 2009, in order to satisfy the control requirements of Quality Assurance Programme for nuclear power materials to quality assurance program, TISCO further established and developed the management network system of nuclear power steel, and formed its own independent Qualified Assurance Plan for Nuclear Power Steel . At the same time, with the enlargement of research and development for nuclear power steel, and the enhancement of communication and coordination with domestic nuclear power projects, TISCO advanced nuclear power steel formed a large scale.
As one of the earliest main domestic enterprise involved in nuclear power use stainless steel research and development, TISCO had supplied stainless steel products successively for Qinshan Nuclear Power Station, Sino-Russia Combined Experimental Fast Reactor Program, Pakistan Chashma Nuclear Power Project, etc.. Facing the large-scale construction and the market demand of nuclear power projects, TISCO made a clear development direction for high-end nuclear power stainless steel products, and with full use of overall advantages of TISCO Group and integration of production-marketing-research, then launched the research work in nuclear grade stainless steel for nuclear power station use.
TISCO nuclear power use stainless steel pioneered in four First: the first domestic production of nuclear grade stainless steel which can be supplied in batch, according to requirements of French RCC-M nuclear power system and technical specification standards; The first realization of localization for nuclear island reactor use stainless steel plate; The first realization of localization for nuclear reactor pool covering stainless steel plate; The first realization of localization for nuclear island equipments use stainless steel plate. And all products quality reached the international advanced level.
