- Within the German research program ¿̐ưIntegrity of Components¿̐ư the first two capsules were irradiated in the Testing Nuclear Power Reactor VAK. The materials are of the 22 NiMoCr 37 and 20 MnMoNi 55 types and represent the lower bound of the base material regarding upper shelf energy and chemical composition (Cu, S, P) as well as a state of material which does not meet both chemical and toughness requirements (low upper shelf test melt). Tension, Charpy, drop-weight, and fracture mechanics specimens were irradiated up to a range of 1 ¿̐ư 5 to 2 ¿̐ư 1019 cm¿̐ư2 (>1 MeV). Despite the materials being at or beyond the specification limits, the results show irradiation sensitivity which can be predicted from the U.S. Reg. Guide Trend Curves (1.99) and KWU Trend Curves in a conservative manner. The procedure to determine the adjusted reference temperature RTNDT (adj.) on the basis of ?T41J (following ASTM E 185) could also be confirmed as conservative by comparing the different criteria derived from Charpy and drop weight tests in the unirradiated and irradiated condition.
