Operating at a high level of fuel efficiency, safety,
proliferation-resistance, sustainability and cost, generation IV
nuclear reactors promise enhanced features to an energy resource
which is already seen as an outstanding source of reliable base
load power. The performance and reliability of materials when
subjected to the higher neutron doses and extremely corrosive
higher temperature environments that will be found in generation IV
nuclear reactors are essential areas of study, as key
considerations for the successful development of generation IV
reactors are suitable structural materials for both in-core and
out-of-core applications. Structural Materials for Generation IV
Nuclear Reactors explores the current state-of-the art in these
areas. Part One reviews the materials, requirements and challenges
in generation IV systems. Part Two presents the core materials with
chapters on irradiation resistant austenitic steels, ODS/FM steels
and refractory metals amongst others. Part Three looks at
out-of-core materials. Structural Materials for Generation IV
Nuclear Reactors is an essential reference text for professional
scientists, engineers and postgraduate researchers involved in the
development of generation IV nuclear reactors.
