Abstract :
The effects of neutron spectrum on tensile properties of the low-activation martensitic steel F82H (8Cr–2WVTa) was examined using a thermal neutron shield to tailor the neutron spectrum for steels irradiated in the high flux isotope reactor (HFIR). The yield stresses of spectrally tailored specimens irradiated in HFIR to 5 dpa at 300°C and 500°C are on trend lines obtained from unshielded irradiation in HFIR. No significant effect of the neutron spectrum on tensile properties could be detected.
