High Strength Ferritic/Martensitic Steel (PNC-FMS : 0.12C-11Cr-0,5Mo-2W-0.2V-0.05Nb), developed by JNC, is one of the candidate materials for the long-life core of large-scale fast breeder reactor. Ductile brittle transition temperature (DBTT) was tentatively determined in 1992 in material design base standard of PNC-FMS. Howevcr, specimen size effect on impact property and upper shelf energy (USE) have not been evaluated. ln this study, effects of specimen size, thermal aging and neutron irradiation on the charpy impact property of PNC-FMS were evaluated, using together with recently obtained data. The design value of USE and DBTT as fabricated and each correlation of aging and irradiation effects were determined. The results are summarized as follows. (1)lt was found that USE is related to (Bb) as USE=m(Bb), where B is specimen width, b is ligament size and both m and n are constant. For PNC-FMS, n value is equal to 1.4. It's possible to determine n value from USE (J) for full size specimen using the correlation: n=1.3810 USE + 1.20. (2)lt was clarified that DBTT is correlated with (BKt) as DBTT=p(logBKt)+q, where Kt is elastic stress concentration factor and both p and q are constant. For PNC-FMS, the correlation is as follows: DBTT=119(logBKt)-160. (3)DBTT estimated at the irradiation temperature from 350 to 650 C for sub size specimen (width and height are 3 and 10 mm, respectively), was below 180 C, based on the design value of DBTT as fabricated and each correlation of aging and irradiation effects.

The evaluation of the fracture toughness of thermal-aged PNC-FMS was conducted using the miniature three-point bending fracture toughness evaluation technique under development. The results implied that although the Charpy impact properties of PNC-FMS after thermal aging for 6000 hours at 600C degraded, the fracture toughness at room temperature did not degraded. Furthermore, as a result of comparing the cases where fatigue pre-crack was introduced to the test specimen before and after thermal aging, it was found that there was no significant difference under the present thermal aging conditions.
