Abstract EN

A new method predicting long-term thermal embrittlement of steel caused by P segregation is verified.

The method is based on the results of impact strength or fracture toughness tests using specimens after relatively short-term neutron irradiation followed by annealing.

2Cr–Ni–Mo–V steel used in reactor pressure vessels of WWER-1000 type is investigated in four conditions: initial condition, after thermal aging, after neutron irradiation, and postirradiation annealing.

The results of impact strength and tensile tests and SEM investigation are presented.

The brittle fracture features are considered for different material conditions.

Calculative estimation on neutron irradiation effect on P diffusion in steels is carried out.

Experimental data are reported which confirm an intense P diffusion acceleration under neutron irradiation.
