Historical Standard: Standard Practice for Testing Graphite and Boronated Graphite Materials for High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Nuclear Reactor Components

ASTM C781

Scope

1.1 This practice covers the test methods for measuring the properties of graphite and boronated graphite materials. These properties may be used for the design and evaluation of high-temperature gas-cooled reactor components.

1.2 The test methods referenced herein are applicable to materials used for replaceable and permanent components as defined in Section 7 and Section 9, and includes fuel elements; removable reflector elements and blocks; permanent side reflector elements and blocks; core support pedestals and elements; control rod, reserve shutdown, and burnable poison compacts; and neutron shield material.

1.3 This practice includes test methods that have been selected from existing ASTM standards, ASTM standards that have been modified, and new ASTM standards that are specific to the testing of materials listed in 1.2. Comments on individual test methods for graphite and boronated graphite components are given in Sections 8 and 10, respectively. The test methods are summarized in Tables 1 and 2.

1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
