National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) has a program of fabricating high-purityV-4Cr-4Ti alloys. The resulting products (NIFS-HEAT-1,2), were characterized by various researchgroups in the world including Chinese partners. South Western Institute of Physics (SWIP) fabricateda new V-4Cr-4Ti alloy (SWIP-Heat), and carried out a comparative evaluation of hydrogenembrittlement of NIFS-HEATs and SWIP-Heat. The tensile test of hydrogen-doped alloys showed that theNIFS-HEAT maintained the ductility to relatively high hydrogen levels. The comparison of the datawith those of previous studies suggested that the reduced oxygen level in the NIFS-HEATs should beresponsible for the increased resistance to hydrogen embrittlement. Based on the chemical analysisdata of NIFS-HEATs and SWIP-Heats, neutron-induced activation was analyzed in Institute of PlasmaPhysics (IPP-CAS) as a function of cooling time after the use in the fusion first wall. The resultsshowed that the low level of Co dominates the activity up to 50 years followed by a domination of Nbor Nb and Al in the respective alloys. It was suggested that reduction of Co and Nb, both of whichare thought to have been introduced via cross-contamination into the alloys from the molds usedshould be crucial for reducing further the activation.展开更多

The relation between C_ max and these parameters of transition metals in vanadium solvent was studied. It is shown that the relation of C_ max and function Z_f can be expressed as lnC_ max=Z_f= 7.3165- 2.7805(ΔX) 2- 71.278δ 2-0.85556n 2/3. The factor of atomic size parameter has the largest effect on the C_ max of the V binary alloy; followed by the factor of electronegativity difference; the electrons concentration has the smallest effect among the three bond parameters. Function Z_f is used for predicting the unknown C_ max of the transition metals in vanadium solvent. The results are compared with Darken-Gurry theorem, which can be deduced by the obtained function Z_f in this work.展开更多

Detailed data about the boundaries, coincidence site lattice（CSL） relationships, grain sizes, and microstructural features were acquired from electron-backscatter diffraction（EBSD） maps. Moreover, the evolution of the magnetic properties during high-energy-beam welding was studied using vibrating sample magnetometry（VSM）. The fraction of low-angle boundaries was observed to increase in the fusion zones of both electron- and laser-beam-welded foils. The results showed that the fractions of low-Σ CSL boundaries（particularly twin boundaries, Σ3） in the fusion zones of the welded foils are higher than those in the base metal. Because the strain rates produced during high-energy-beam welding are very high（because of the extremely high cooling rate）, grain deformation by a slip mechanism is limited; therefore, deformation by grain twinning is dominant. VSM analysis showed that the magnetic properties of the welded foils, i.e., their remanence, coercive force, and energy product, changed significantly. The formation of large grains with preferred orientation parallel to the easy axis of magnetization was the main reason for the diminished magnetic properties.展开更多

Comparing with Al-Mg-Zn system the α-phase region in isothermal sections at room temperature and 450°C for the system with 0.15at%V is slightly narrowed and expanded respectively. The solubility limits of Zn and Mg in α-Al have been found to be 3.3at% (7.6wt%) and 5.5at%(5.0wt%) respectively at room temperature, and 6.0at% (13.4wt%) and 11.0at% (10.0wt%) at 450°C. The τ phase in this system is a ternary intermetallic compound, which undergoes an allotropic transformation at about 427°C.展开更多
