Measurements of excitation functions and photoneutron cross sections of 96,98,99,104 Ru and 100 Mo
Photoneutron cross sections were extracted for isotopes of ruthenium and molybdenum on natural abundance targets via a reduced chi-squared analysis on excitation functions, or activation yields, as function of electron beam energy. Bremsstrahlung photons were produced via an electron linear accelerator and a tungsten radiator at the Idaho Accelerator Center. A total of 16 irradiations were performed with electron beam energies ranging from approximately 8 MeV to 23 MeV. Induced radioactivity was measured using a high purity germanium detector. The cross sections were extracted assuming a three parameter Lorentzian fit with a smooth truncated rise at reaction threshold.
Design of novel refractory equiatomic multi-principal elemental alloys based on Mo-Nb-Ti system for Gen IV reactor applications
Excellent irradiation damage resistance demonstrated by multi-principal elemental alloys (MPEAs) has sparked significant interest among researchers, prompting exploration into their vast compositional space, to validate their suitability for nuclear applications. A combined approach of thermodynamic and empirical parameters calculations alongside CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagrams) for phase formation predictions enable high-throughput material selection for sophisticated applications like nuclear, overcoming laborious and time-consuming experiments. Key thermodynamic and empirical parameters for eight novel equiatomic MPEAs, based on seven low thermal neutron cross section refractory elements, for predicting phase formation were calculated, and equilibrium and non-equilibrium simulations in CALPHAD were employed to comprehensively model the systems. Pseudo binary phase diagram simulations showed that Zr, V or equiatomic CrV additions to the base MoNbTi alloy (MoNbTi-Zr, MoNbTi-V and MoNbTi-CrV alloys) favor the formation of isomorphous body-centered cubic (BCC) phase at high temperatures, while Cr, Al, equiatomic ZrV, or equiatomic CrAl additions (MoNbTi-Cr, MoNbTi-Al, MoNbTi-ZrV or MoNbTi-CrAl alloys) limit the solubility of them. Equilibrium CALPHAD simulations at 750 oC were consistent with XRD results on MoNbTi, MoNbTiZr and MoNbTiCr alloys, and partially for others. Notably, elemental segregation observed in the backscattered electron (BSE) scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the alloys was accurately simulated through non-equilibrium Scheil solidification calculations in CALPHAD, further verified by experiments. The precipitation of TiCr2 Laves phase in Cr containing MoNbTiCr and MoNbTiCrAl was accurately predicted while discrepancies were noted in MoNbTiCrV. The equilibrium simulations also provided insights into phase compositions at specific temperatures offering a pathway for tailoring the desired microstructure and properties of these systems. Empirical parameters calculations successfully predicted random solid solution in the base MoNbTi alloy, and with an exception in MoNbTiV and MoNbTiAl, predicted intermetallic precipitation in the rest, especially, Laves phase precipitation in Cr containing alloys.

Corrosion Susceptibility of Cr–Mo Steels and Ferritic Stainless Steels in Biomass-Derived Pyrolysis Oil Constituents
In this work, to better understand and evaluate the corrosion performance of candidate structural steels and ferritic stainless steels for production, transport, and storage of biomass pyrolysis oils, corrosion studies were conducted in selected organic constituents of bio-oils, including catechol, formic acid, and their mixtures as well as lactobionic acid, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. R 2 , the resistance against corrosion reaction, was obtained by fitting measured impedance spectra into an equivalent circuit. The values of R 2 were then used to assess corrosion resistance of the steels in each organic constituent and mixture. Type 410 and 430 stainless steels were resistant to corrosion in all tested organic constituents, while 2.25Cr-1Mo steel was not. 9Cr-1Mo steel was corrosion resistant in catechol but not in the other mixtures that contained organic acids. On the basis of the results of this work, it is suggested that the corrosion resistance against organic acids is attributed to formation of a Cr-rich passive film that requires stainless steels with critical Cr levels in excess of approximately 11 wt %. In catechol-only solution, lower levels of Cr intermediate between that of 2.25Cr-1Mo steel and 9Cr-1Mo steel appeared sufficient.
