Titanium additions tend to suppress swelling of stainless steel alloy AISI 316 in the annealed condition. Evidence is presented to show that a similar effect occurs in the cold-worked condition in both EBR-II and FFTF. The titanium-modified steels owe their improved swelling resistance not only to their titanium additions but also to small but significant changes in nickel, chromium, silicon and phosphorus levels.
