Abstract
Experimental data on the size changes and dynamic modulus of elasticit y of Russian-produced graphites neutron-irradiated at temperatures in the range 400-500 degrees C with fluences of up to 3.6 x 10(22) n/cm(2 ) (E > 0.18 MeV) are presented. The results are compared with those fo r foreign reactor graphites. The radiation effects are correlated with the structure and properties of the materials studied.
