Thus, AISI Type 316 stainless steel, 20% cold-worked, is the
most widely-used cladding and duct alloy. The key technical
issues include elimination of heat-to-heat variability in proper-
ties, gaining an understanding of fuel-adjacency effects, reso-
lution of the synergistic effects of stress, swelling, creep,
phase instabilities, and irradiation history, and, in the case
of some of the advanced alloys, improving ductility, Irradia-
tion studies and out-of-reactor development efforts now in
progress are expected to enable selection of the two or three
most promising alloys for future LMFBR applications.
