Radiation resistance and parameters of activation of aluminium-magnesium-scandium and aluminium-magnesium-vanadium alloys under neutron irradiation
1992
Abstract Alloys Al2.24Mg0.23Sc0.04Zr, Al2.24Mg0.12Sc0.04Zr, and Al2.24Mg0.05V (at.)) annealed at 150°C and 400°C were irradiated ≈70 and ≈150°C in the SM-2 reactor. The maximum neutron fluence was 4.7×10 24 m −2 ( E > 0.1 MeV). The tensile tests were carried out in the temperature range 20 to 350°C. Alloy Al2.24Mg0.23Sc0.04Zr annealed at 400°C and alloy Al2.24Mg0.12Sc0.04Zr annealed at 150°C at all test temperature, retained good mechanical properties after irradiation. The mechanisms for the radiation resistance of aluminiumscandium and aluminiummagnesiumscandium alloys are discussed. Calculations of induced radioactivity and its decay behaviour after shutdown in aluminium and Al2.24Mg(0.12–0.23)Sc alloys were carried out. Composition of the radionuclides in these materials after irradiation in the SM-2 reactor were also determined using a gamma-spectroscopy technique.
