Samenvatting:
The tensile properties of neutron irradiated Hot Isostatically Pressed(HIP) joints of type 316L(N) stainless steel (heat PM-130) have been
measured. Cylindrical tensile test specimens of 4 mm diameter were irradiated
in the High Flux Reactor (HFR) in Petten, The Netherlands, simulating the
first wall conditions by a combination of high displacement damage with
proportional amounts of helium. The solid HIP specimens were irradiated up to
a target dose level of 5 dpa at a temperature of 550K. The damage levels
realized range from 3.0 to 4.1 dpa, with helium contents up to 38 appm. Post
irradiation testing temperatures ranged from 300 to 700K. The report contains
the experimental conditions and summarises the results, which are given in
terms of engineering stresses and strains and reduction of area. The main
conclusions are that the unirradiated solid-HIP material is very soft,
assumingly due to the relatively large grain size. Neutron irradiation
induces both hardening and reduction of ductility, similar to the behaviour
of 316L(N) plate. No failures related to debonding were observed for the
tests of the unirradiated samples, however one of eight tested irradiated
specimens fractured in the HIP joint, showing a flat fracture surface and a
low reduction of area. 6 refs.
