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 behaviou…
The UK National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) has been developing its capability in high‑temperature water corrosion over the past years in collaboration with the University of Bristol, UK. As part of this work, studies have been undertaken on nuclear fusion‑specific material Eurofer‑97, a reduced activation ferritic‑martensitic steel. Eurofe…
