LiPb, a novel material for fusion applications
Description
LiPb in various compositions is a unique material for fusion application, combining the breeding material and neutron multiplier. It provides a high tritium breeding ratio, low tritium solubility and, at the Pb rich end, is relatively inert with water. This paper summarizes the neutronic calculations, the tritium chemistry information, the material compatibility problems and the available material properties. The material compatibility problem may be the most severe problem in using LiPb in a fusion environment
