TEM Foil Preparation from Irradiated Metallic Materials: A Practical Approach

Original language description

This paper focuses on work related to post irradiation examination of 300-series austenitic stainless steel taken from reactor vessel internals of PWR. High neutron irradiation dose in NNP?s leads to a degradation of microstructure of the material in a nano-metric scale. Hence, it is important to characterize the irradiated materials to understand the physical basis of the degradation mechanisms. Microstructural characterization of neutron-irradiated materials by TEM requires enhanced sample preparationmethodologies, which commonly needs general improvements regarding particular experiment to be performed. In this study, the authors have developed methodology specialized in 1 mm TEM thin foil preparation from a deformed shank of a broken miniaturizedtensile specimen. TEM foil size in current studies is smaller than standard because of the small shank diameter and high radioactivity of the studied material. The reduction of the TEM foil radioactivity to minimum is crucial to perform E
