- A cooperative research program by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Combustion Engineering, Inc., (CE), and the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has explored trends in radiation effects for commercially produced ASTM A533-B steel plates, weld deposits, and weld heat-affected zones, depicting three levels of control over impurity copper content. The primary objective was to establish the trend of improved 288¿̐ưC (550¿̐ưF) radiation resistance with progressive reductions in allowable copper content. An overall objective was to develop information assisting the formulation of special specifications for steels for nuclear service and the delineation of associated embrittlement trends for reactor vessel design and operation. This report describes investigations on Series 3 materials, which represent optimum steelmaking practice, and a limitation on copper content of 0.06 percent copper maximum.
