Description

The helium embrittlement of Fe-(0 to 15) wt%Cr alloys was examined with high temperature tensile testing. Helium injection was performed by using cyclotron and partly by thermal neutron irradiation with boron alloying. The helium embrittlement was severer in lower chromium alloys. Helium bubbles were observed in Fe but not in Fe-15Cr, both of which contained 24 atppm helium tested at 1023 K. (author)
