In 1959 the Journal of Nuclear Materials (JNM) was founded and is now celebrating its
Diamond Anniversary year. The present paper is part of a series in which single JNM …

There remain some drawbacks of mechanical properties of W materials as a plasma facing
material (PFM) for fusion reactor divertors, which are low temperature brittleness, high …

Low temperature brittleness, high ductile-to-brittle transition temperature (DBTT), and
recrystallization-induced embrittlement are potential drawbacks related to the thermo …

The lifetime of tungsten (W) monoblocks under fusion conditions is ambivalent. In this work,
the microstructure dependent mechanical behaviour of pulsed high heat flux (HHF) exposed …

The tensile properties of powder-metallurgical-processed Pure W, K-doped W, W-3% Re,
and K-doped W-3% Re were examined after neutron irradiation up to 0.7 dpa at 910–1020° …

Powder metallurgical processing of Tungsten (W) followed by thermomechanical treatment,
including rolling and stress relief (SR) heat treatment, is a candidate fabrication process for …

Extremely high heat flux reaching 20 MW· m− 2 can be foreseen for the future fusion reactor.
Such high heat flux would induce recrystallization of tungsten (W) material, leading to …

Extending the lifetime of tungsten based plasma facing components for future fusion reactors
remains an everlasting challenge. In this work, the microstructure of tungsten monoblocks …

High heat flux as 20 MW m− 2 during stationary operation can be foreseen in future fusion
devices, leading to recrystallization and thermal creep in tungsten targets. Both …

In preparation of the production of the actively cooled tungsten targets for the lower divertor
of WEST (W-for tungsten-Environment in Steady-state Tokamak), the qualification of …
