The swelling of tensile specimens irradiated in the MOTA-1B experiment at approx. 450/sup 0/C have been measured using immersion density. The majority of these specimens were constructed from various commercial copper alloys and exhibited density changes ranging from -0.66% to 16.6% swelling. The latter was obtained in a copper-0.1% silver sepecimen that reached 16 dpa, implying a swelling rate of at least 1%/dpa.
