Analysis of copper and copper alloys after low-level tritium charging

Creators

Description

Copper and the copper alloys Cu-Zr and Cu-Cr-Zr-Mg were implanted with ∼ 50 appb He using the tritium trick. The measured helium concentration was an order-of-magnitude higher than that expected from calculations based on the established solubility of tritium in copper. A comparison with specimens annealed in hydrogen showed that 50 appb He does not have an appreciable effect on the tensile properties of any of the tested materials. 14 references, 3 tables
