[2O04] Irradiation effects in tungsten materials for fusion reactors
(3) Microstructure and high-temperature tensile properties of helium-implanted tungsten
Keywords:Fusion reactor, Tungsten, Helium implantation, Microstructure, High-temperature tensile properties
Tungsten (W) is expected to generate about 20 appm of helium (He) by the nuclear transmutation reaction with high energy neutrons. In this study, we report microstructural development and high-temperature tensile properties of W implanted 20 appm of He from recovery to recrystallization by using the post-irradiation annealing up to 1500℃.
