Influence of a flowing-lithium environment on the fatigue and tensile properties of Type 316 stainless steel

OSTI ID:5669776
Low-cycle fatigue and tensile data have been obtained on Type 316 stainless steel in a flowing lithium environment of controlled purity. The results show that the fatigue life of the steel in flowing lithium at 755 K is greater than in air. Preexposure of the material to lithium reduces fatigue life. The reduction in fatigue life may be attributed to the formation of a weak ferrite layer after lithium exposure. Tensile data for cold-worked Type 316 stainless steel indicate that at temperatures between 476 and 755 K, a flowing lithium environment has little or no effect on the tensile properties of the steel.
