| Popis: | In the framework of the European Long Term Fusion Technology Program, Advanced Materials Field, ECN has been working on the assessment of low temperature irradiation hardening and embrittlement of vanadium alloys, as being developed for fusion application. Tensile, miniaturized Charpy impact (KLST) and Compact Tension specimens have been irradiated in the High Flux Reactor (HFR) in Petten up to approximately 6 dpa at 600 K. Three alloys were included; V–4Cr–4Ti from the 500 kg IEA reference heat provided by Argonne National Laboratory, and minor amounts of V–3Cr–3Ti and V–6Cr–6Ti, provided by Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The paper presents the results of tensile tests after irradiation. These tensile tests show strong hardening and reduction of ductility. |
