高速炉(FBR)及び軽水炉(LWR)の構造材料の劣化評価のため、結晶粒界に沿った磁気及び腐食特性に基づく新しい評価技術の開発に着手した。経年化したFBR構造材料に対し、磁気的方法を適用し、き裂発生以前の初期段階のクリープ損傷を非破壊検出することができる。そこで、クリープ損傷を受けた常磁性のステンレス鋼について、自然磁化に対する負荷応力の効果を調べた。一方、イオン照射したステンレス鋼の粒界近傍の腐食特性及び光磁気特性はそれぞれAFM及びKerr効果顕微鏡を用いて評価した。これらの劣化はCr欠乏等の粒界近傍の性質変化によって引き起こされた。この結果、原子炉構造材料の劣化進行過程の初期段階は、粒界に沿った磁気及び腐食特性によって検出できることがわかった。

JAERI and JNC have begun the cooperative research of evaluation techniques of structural material degradation in FBR and LWR, which based on magnetic and corrosion properties along grain boundaries. Magnetic method has been proposed as the one of the non-destructive detection techniques on the early stage of creep-damage before crack initiation for aged structural materials of FBRs. The effects of applied stress on natural magnetization were investigated on paramagnetic stainless steels having creep-damages. On the other hand, corrosion properties and magneto-optical characteristics of ion-irradiated stainless steels in the vicinity of grain boundaries were estimated by AFM and Kerr effect microscope, respectively. These degradations were induced by changes in characteristics in the vicinity of grain boundaries. It is found that the initial level of progressing process of damage can detect changes in magnetic and corrosion properties along grain boundaries of aged and degraded nuclear plants structural materials.
