Development of low activation vanadium alloys. Final report for period 1992-1994

Description

In the period 92-94 ECN carried out a task tilted 'Development of low activation alloys' in the frame of the European Fusion Technology Programme. The work included helium implantation, neutron irradiation and post-irradiation mechanical testing of eight vanadium alloys and three purities of vanadium. Helium and oxygen affect the mechanical properties. Helium injection followed by neutron irradiation has the most embrittling effect. Quantitative modelling of the alloy behaviour needs improvement to explain the observed phenomena. (orig.)
