Abstract
The materials science aspects of increasing the operational safety of advanced VVER reactors are described. The requirements of the materials for increasing the operational safety of the reactor vessel are formulated. The use of 15Kh2NMFA class 1 steel and 15Kh2MFA-A mod A and mod B steels for fabricating reactor vessels with enhanced operational reliability is analyzed. The results of investigations of the radiation and thermal embrittlement of the improved steels 15Kh2MFA-A mod A and mod B are presented.
