Description

The structural materials - martensitic steel X18 CrMoVNb 12 1 and vanadium alloy V3Ti1Si - are studied in respect to their mechanical properties in the Pb-17Li eutectic. Tensile tests at 240 and 3000C do not indicate any liquid metal embrittlement effect. Creep-rupture tests of the martensitic steel at 5500C in the liquid metal are running, first results indicate a reduction of creep life by corrosion action of the liquid metal. Further tests and examinations after exposure have to approve the first results and to develop a mechanistic model of the liquid metal effect. The creep-rupture tests with the vanadium alloy are under preparation. (orig.)
