Neutron-irradiation mechnical properties of in-reactor archive type 304 stainless steels

  • 1. KAERI, Taejon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

Mechanical properties of archive type 304UC and 304YG stainless steels, irradiation to 10x1019n/cm2 (E>1.0 MeV) fluence for 11 days at 300 .deg. C, were evaluated by high-temperature tensile tests. Irradiation 304UC and 304YG archive steels showed typical irradiation hardening and low elongation, especially yield strength increased largely. However, the strength above 600 .deg. C was recovered to that of origin material. The reason for this was attributed to the recovery of irradiation defects by thermal activation. Strain hardening exponent, n value of irradiated steels was lower than that of unirradiated ones
