Description

12Cr-15Ni based steels with additions of Si alone or (Si+Ti) have been irradiated to a maximum dose of 47 dpa at temperatures ranging from 399 to 6490C. Irradiation-induced transformation of austenite to ferrite and occasionally martensite was observed. The extent of transformation was increased by Si and Ti additions but reduced by cold working. Void swelling was generally reduced by Si additions, but Ti-modification resulted in enhanced swelling in solution treated alloys at high temperatures. (author)
