This paper provides a fundamental description of oxide fouling mechanism and develops methods for preventing electrostatic deposition of charged particles from the high temperature, high purity water on the metal surface. The experimental results showed that, in high temperature, high purity water, TiO2 coating is a candidate oxide as an anti fouling layer under BWR water chemistry condition.
