Characterisation of titanium beryllides with different microstructure

Preliminary investigations revealed that beryllides like Be 12Ti may be much more suitable for use as a neutron multiplier in future fusion power plants compared to pure beryllium. Two sorts of Be–Ti samples having different grain sizes but consisting, mainly, of Be 12Ti have been fabricated. Invest...

Zusammenfassung:	Preliminary investigations revealed that beryllides like Be 12Ti may be much more suitable for use as a neutron multiplier in future fusion power plants compared to pure beryllium. Two sorts of Be–Ti samples having different grain sizes but consisting, mainly, of Be 12Ti have been fabricated. Investigation of microstructure and measurements of tritium release rate allow make a comparison between both types of fabricated titanium beryllides. Obtained results are disclosed in this paper.
