| Popis: |
Lithium metatitanate (Li2TiO3) pebbles were irradiated with neutrons within the HICU (High neutron fluence Irradiation of pebble staCks for fUsion) experiment to investigate their material properties and tritium release behaviour in a post-irradiation examination (PIE). The irradiation temperature is the most significant influence on the material. Besides a higher irradiation temperature, a higher initial Li–6 content tends to lead to an increased tritium generation resulting in the formation of the secondary lithium depleted phase Li4Ti5O12. A pre-compaction of the pebble bed does not have an apparent influence on the material properties. Tritium is released as semi-tritiated water and semi-tritiated hydrogen (HTO and HT) and its release is enhanced at elevated irradiation temperatures. |
