ResumoMeasurements up to 500°C of selected thermal and mechanical properties (density, thermal conductivity, thermal expansion, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, and ultimate tensile strength) are reported for four Cr-Mn (Ni-free) austenitic steels of interest for fusion reactor design and of the European AISI 316 L reference fusion material. The results are discussed in terms of the impact of these properties on the lifetime of fusion reactor components by calculating the thermal stress factor. Other important effects such as radiation, sputtering and plasma disruption damage, have also been taken into consideration on the basis of preliminary experience.
