Effects of neutron irradiation on hydrogen isotope permeation on W-Re

Hydrogen and deuterium permeation behavior for neutron damaged W and W-3 %Re was evaluated using a Plasma Driven Permeation device. For neutron damaged W-3 %Re at 773 K and 1473 K, precipitation of Re and Os was observed by atom probe tomography. Neutron irradiation introduced defect damage throughout the sample and enhanced H and D […]
