Fracture toughness and tensile behavior of ferritic–martensitic steels irradiated at low temperatures
Disk compact tension and sheet tensile specimens of the ferritic-martensitic steels F82H and Sandvik HT-9 were irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at 90°C and 250°C to neutron doses of 1.5–2.5 dpa. For both steels, radiation hardening was accompanied by a reduction in strain hardening...

Zusammenfassung: | Disk compact tension and sheet tensile specimens of the ferritic-martensitic steels F82H and Sandvik HT-9 were irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at 90°C and 250°C to neutron doses of 1.5–2.5 dpa. For both steels, radiation hardening was accompanied by a reduction in strain hardening capacity (SHC). When combined with other literature data it is apparent that severe loss of SHC occurs in F82H for irradiation temperatures below ∼400°C and in HT-9 for irradiation temperatures below ∼250°C. For both alloys, severe loss of SHC does not correlate with brittle behavior during fracture toughness testing. |
