Prime Candidate Alloy (PCA) has been rapidly solidified and its composition has been modified by increasing carbon and titanium content. Rapidly solidified Path A alloy, with a fine grain size (approximately 5 ..mu..m) and controlled TiC dispersion, showed good room temperature tensile properties and favorable rupture strength and ductility at 923 K in the preirradiated condition. Structural modifications which include a reduction of grain size, an increase in TiC content and a control of dislocation structure are expected to have a beneficial effect on high temperature strength and swelling of Path A alloys under irradiation.
