Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a ferritic alloy having excellent ability to withstand nuclear power plant accidents and a method of manufacturing a nuclear fuel cladding tube using the same. The alloy includes iron (Fe), aluminum (Al), chromium (Cr), and nickel (Ni). The nickel (Ni) may be included 0.5 to 10 wt % based on a total amount of the alloy. The chromium may be included 13 to 18 wt % based on the total amount of the alloy. The aluminum may be included 5 to 7 wt % based on the total amount of the alloy.
