Report on the Assessment of Ion Irradiations on High Entropy Alloys
Idaho National Laboratory (INL) initiated a joint international effort with the Czech Republic to explore the feasibility of manufacturing High Entropy Alloys for high-temperature nuclear applications using Additive Manufacturing. This effort was funded at INL by the United States Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy under the Advanced Reactor Technologies and Advanced Materials and […]
Final report on assessment of molten salt corrosion testing of unirradiated and ion irradiated advanced manufactured high entropy alloys
Generation IV reactors and future fusion reactor designs have led to more demanding materials performance requirements due to their increased operating temperatures, corrosive coolants, and increased radiation doses compared to the current light-water reactor fleet. Among the innovative nuclear technologies under development, molten salt reactors stand out for their potential to offer superior fuel utilization, […]
Preliminary results of molten salt corrosion of high entropy alloys manufactured at INL
Materials development is needed to support the design and deployment of advanced nuclear reactors that will operate at higher temperatures and in harsher environments than the current light water reactor fleet. High entropy alloys have been identified as a class of alloy that could address the needs of advanced reactors, such as the molten salt […]
