Environmentally-assisted cracking behaviour of EUROFER97 under simulated water-cooled breeder blanket conditions

Abstract The reduced activation ferritic martensitic (RAF/M) EUROFER97 steel is the candidate structural material for the water-cooled lithium lead breeding blanket (WCLL-BB) section in the DEMO fusion reactor. Its performance under environmentally-assisted cracking (EAC) conditi...
