ABSTRACTMicrostructural examination and in situ post-irradiation annealing studies were carried out on 20% cold-worked 316 stainless steel (SS) hexagonal duct material following irradiation in the reflector region of the EBR-II reactor. Stainless steel hexagonal ducts were used to house reactor subassemblies and provide a valuable source of information on irradiation behavior of reactor structural materials at lower dose-rates (on the order of 10-8 dpa/sec) than previously examined. The microstructural development of samples irradiated to doses of 1, 20 and 30 dpa is examined, while the post-irradiation annealing behavior of a sample irradiated to 20 dpa is described. Annealing studies were performed at 370 and 500°C to examine the kinetics of radiation damage recovery as a function of annealing temperature. The initial (pre-annealed) microstructures consists of a substantial density of irradiation induced chromium-rich M23C6 and M6C carbides which form both on the grain boundaries and within the grain interiors. Recovery of the cold- work is evident in the 1 dpa sample while samples irradiated to 20 and 30 dpa possess dense populations of voids and dislocation structures consisting of networks of line dislocations and faulted dislocation loops. Results indicate that post-irradiation annealing of the samples at 370°C for 1 hour has little effect on the microstructure, while further annealing at 500°C for 1 hour results in void shrinkage, the formation of small cavities, and a reduction in the dislocation loop and network density.

An evaluation program was conducted on Type 316 stainless-steel sheet material to determine the effects of residual cold-work and welding on the room-temperature and elevated-temperature mechanical properties to 1800 deg F. Short-time tensile and tensile-creep elongations tests were run to determine the stresses required to produce elongations up to 10 per cent in 2 min. The effect of welds in tension was to lower the elongation with no loss in strength. The effect of cold-work on the annealed material was to increase appreciably the strength properties, thus allowing for higher design stresses. The results of a few tests indicate that Type 316 stainless steel retains some strength properties up to 2300 deg F. A definite stress-strain relationship exists in which the 0.2 per cent yield stress is very close to the tensile stress.
