| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Reduced Activation Ferritic/Martensitic (RAFM) steel is a promising candidate for the blanket structural materials of fusion reactors. One of the key issues in the use of RAFM for the blanket is its low workability. As a solution of this issue, innovative processing technology based on the transformation super plasticity (TSP) was proposed. In general, TSP is known as high temperature creep deformation which is induced by phase transformation. In this study, tensile tests under constant load were carried out with cyclic temperature variation for a RAFM steel to investigate the effect of cyclic temperature variations on elongation. The result of the tensile test under constant load for the RAFM steel with cyclic temperature variations exhibited a macro-elongation to 172 %. The results of the tensile tests with varying loads showed the possibility of reducing the necessary time and enhancing the controllability for the formation of RAFM steel products using TSP.
