The effect of water chemistry, surface condition, pH moderator (LiOH vs. KOH), and Zn addition was investigated at 300 °C on the oxidation behaviour of reduced activation ferritic martensitic (RAF/M) EUROFER-97. EUROFER-97 is the proposed material for the water-cooled breeder blanket (WC-BB) section of DEMO, but its behaviour u…
The self-passivating yttrium-containing WCr alloy has been developed and researched as a potential plasma-facing armour material for fusion power plants. This study explores the use of yttria (Y2O3) powders instead of yttrium elemental powders in the mechanical alloying process to assess their applicability in this material. Fabricated through f…
