Abstract:
Utilizing the heavy ion, hydrogen and helium triple beam irradiation experiment platform at China Institute of Atomic Energy, the irradiation experiments for the domestic nuclear grade 304NG stainless steel which is a kind of nuclear reactor internal materials were carried out with different doses and different temperatures. The hardness and elastic modulus of the samples before and after irradiation were measured by nano-indentation with continuous stiffness measurement technique. The results show that under 6 dpa, with the increase of irradiation temperature, the irradiation hardening becomes weakened. Under 300 ℃, the irradiation hardening increases with the irradiation dose. After withstanding higher irradiation dose, the irradiation hardening of hydrogen and helium injected range is more significant, indicating the hydrogen and helium enhance hardening effect.
