Research Abstract |
For the purpose of enhancing high temperature strength and upper operation temperature limit of low activation vanadium alloys, which are promising candidate of fusion structural materials, production of V-4Cr-4Ti alloys containing high density precipitates and high density nano-particles was performed by repeated thermo-mechanical treatments and mechanical alloying, respectively. Mechanical property evaluation including thermal creep tests verified the increased high temperature strength by the precipitates or nano-particles, and the underlying mechanisms were clarified.
