Abstract

ABSTRACTDevelopment of fine grain 316L with small amount of TiC for high radiation-tolerant performance was tried considering the fabrication process of thermo-mechanical treatments. The materials obtained are UFG316L+2.0 mass% TiC with the grain size of 90–270 nm, depending on the final annealing temperature from 700 ℃ to 900 ℃. The materials were examined by transmission electron microscopy observation, X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy, high voltage electron microscope electron irradiation and stress corrosion cracking by crevice bent beam method in high-temperature water with 8 ppm dissolved oxygen. The test results showed that the material is generally of excellent quality. Especially void swelling induced by the electron irradiation at 400 ℃ is less than 1/10 compared to the commercial SUS316L.
