TENSILE AND CREEP PROPERTIES OF GRAPHITE FOR NEPA PROJECT

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4841691

An investigation was undertaken to determine tensile strength and creep in graphite as a function of temperature. Tensile and creep tests were made on type C-18 and AGHT graphite at temperatures up to 5100 deg F. Tensile strength was observed to increase with temperature, and creep does not appear to be a serious problem in graphite for structures subject to 2500 deg F temperatures. (J.R.D.)
