Times Cited Count：42 Percentile：97.24(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Ultra-high temperature ring tensile tests were carried out to investigate the tensile behavior of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steel claddings and wrapper materials under severe accident conditions; temperatures ranged from room temperature to 1400
C which is near the melting point of core materials. The experimental results showed that tensile strength of 9Cr-ODS steel claddings was highest in the core materials at the ultra-high temperatures between 900 and 1200C, but that there was significant degradation in tensile strength of 9Cr-ODS steel claddings above 1200C. This degradation was attributed to grain boundary sliding deformation with 
/
transformation, which was associated with reduced ductility. On the other hand, tensile strength of recrystallized 12Cr-ODS and FeCrAl-ODS steel claddings retained its high value above 1200 C unlike the other tested materials. Present study includes the result of "R&D of ODS ferritic steel fuel cladding for maintaining fuel integrity at the high temperature accident condition" entrusted to Hokkaido University by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan (MEXT).

Tolerance of fast rector fuel elements to failure in the typical accident conditions was evaluated for the oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) ferritic steel claddings that are candidate of the cladding material for advanced fast reactors. The evaluation was based on the cladding creep damage, which was quantified by the cumulative damage fractions (CDFs). It was shown that the CDFs of the ODS ferritic steel cladding were substantially lower than the breach limit of 1.0 in the loss of flow and transient over power conditions until a passive reactor shutdown system operates.

Times Cited Count：109 Percentile：96.57(Nanoscience & Nanotechnology)Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic steels, which are the most promising candidate materials for advanced fast reactor fuel elements, have exceptional creep strength at 973 K. The superior creep property of 9Cr-ODS ferritic steels is ascribed to the formation of a nonequilibrium phase, designated as the residual ferrite. The yield strength of the residual ferrite itself has been determined to be as high as 1360 MPa at room temperature from nanoindentation measurements. The creep strength is enhanced by minimizing the number of packet boundaries induced by the martensitic phase transformation. The creep strain occurs by sliding at weaker regions such as at the grain boundaries and packet boundaries. It is found that 9Cr-ODS ferritic steels behave as fiber composite materials comprising the harder residual ferrite and the softer tempered martensite.

The super ODS cladding were manufactured into 8.5 mm outer diameter and 0.5 mm thickness by using pilger.mill rolling and intermediate heat treatment. The final heat treatment was successfully conducted at 1150 C for 1h to make perfectly recrystallized structure. The manufactured cladding exhibits a secondary recrystallized grains with {110} 
100
Goss orientation. As a summary of super ODS steels R&D, the ODS steel, 16Cr-4Al-2W-0.1Ti added with small amount of Hf or Zr, is the prime candidate of "Super ODS steels" which has high strength at elevated temperatures, high resistance to corrosion for SCW and LBE, and high resistance to irradiation.

It may be possible that the high-temperature strength of 9Cr-ODS ferritic/martensitic steel is largely improved by the formation of ultra-fine residual-alpha phase. This study discussed the correlation between ultra-fine residual-alpha formation and mechanical strength in ODS ferritic steel.

In order to evaluate the strength and deformation in severe accident, the transient burst tests were carried out with various heating rates (from 0.1 to 10 K/s) and hoop stresses (from 50 to 200 MPa) to provide more evaluation data. The test materials were core materials in fast reactors, 9-18Cr-ODS and accident tolerant fuel cladding tube in the light water reactors, FeCrAl-added ODS ferritic steels. Result, the rupture strength dropped with increasing hoop stress and decreasing heating rate. The burst strength of Al-added ODS steels was lower than other ODS steels, Al and Zr-added ODS steels show good transient burst strength.
