Abstract

Inconel 800H and AISI 310 alloy samples were exposed to Fe4+ ions to simulate neutron irradiation damage, and then annealed at 400°C and 500°C to study the kinetics of thermal recovery of the irradiation damage. The increase in hardness with ion irradiation and the decrease in hardness due to thermal recovery were recorded. Our findings suggest that under thermal and neutron irradiation conditions envisaged for the Canadian Gen-IV SCWR concept, both alloys will experience significant irradiation hardening; however, this will be concurrently negated by even more rapid thermal recovery of the irradiation damage.
