Abstract

Single variable experiments on a set of reactor pressure vessel and model alloys with a range of controlled compositions show a systematic effect of neutron flux (ϕ) on hardening in the intermediate fluence (ϕt) regime. The data suggest that high ϕ and enhanced recombination by vacancy trapping by solutes delays the onset of radiation-enhanced precipitation hardening.
