Abstract

Graphite and carbon-carbon composites or other carbide composites are considered to be candidate for plasma facing materials or structural material of fusion reactors because of their low atomic number, high thermal conductivity, stability under irradiation etc. This report briefly summarizes the mechanical properties, physical properties and microstructure changes of graphite, carbon composites and metal matrix composites after neutron irradiation. Generally, the effects of neutron irradiation are quite remarkable on physical properties of the graphite materials.
