Long-term corrosion behavior of ODS-Eurofer in flowing Pb-15.7Li at 550 °C

In this paper results from long-term corrosion testing of ODS-Eurofer will be reported for exposure times up to 1.5 years at a flow velocity of 0.1 m/s. The evaluated data for ODS-Eurofer corrosion will be compared with values of 'single' phase 'classical' Eurofer. The observed corrosion attack and mechanisms will be discussed in detail considering the testing conditions and the microstructure of the RAFM-steels.
