Elevated Temperature Graphite Mechanical Testing

High purity graphite will be used for core components within most High Temperature Reactor (HTR) designs. Several "high tech” industries currently utilize synthetic, high-purity, commercially available graphite components to fabricate photovoltaic cells, semi-conductors, optical fibers, and other high value electronic industry products. New advanced HTR designs are also interested in using these graphite grades for long-term, internal core component applications. Consequently, the US Department of Energy, Advanced Reactor Technologies (DOE-ART) program has spent several years testing different high purity graphite grades for potential use within these new nuclear reactor designs. A significant part of that effort has been in the development and improvement of American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test standards specifically for nuclear graphite grades. Nearly all ASTM test standards have either been developed or improved by the DOE-ART program over the past 25 years. The ART program continues to assist in the development of new ASTM test standards in support of the future commercial HTR fleet currently being designed and built in the USA. The newest effort undertaken by ART is the development of high temperature mechanical testing practices that may be acceptable for a future ASTM test standard (or guide) for this critical material property measurement.

Initial Split Disk Mechanical Testing Studies with a Digital Image Correlator

Nuclear graphite plays a pivotal role in the advanced reactor program. Consequently, developing a viable method to measure and evaluate small samples is essential. The Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique allows for the examination of much smaller components in real-time applications, particularly concerning reactor capsule design and placement within the reactor. These samples become crucial for understanding the behavior of nuclear graphite before and after radiation exposure. They serve as a means to analyze changes and effectively measure the mechanical strength properties, which may or may not alter following irradiation.

Baseline Characterization Database Verification Report ? NBG-17 Billet V104

The purpose of this report is to present data collected in the Baseline Graphite Characterization Program, which is directly tasked with supporting the Idaho National Laboratory’s (INL’s) research and development efforts on the Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) Program. This program populates a comprehensive database that reflects the baseline properties of nuclear-grade graphite regarding individual grade, billet, and position within individual billets. The physical- and mechanical-property information being collected will be transferred to the Nuclear Data Management and Analysis System (NDMAS), and that database will help populate the handbook of property data available to member nations of the Generation-IV International Forum. Transfer of these data from the applicable technical lead to the dissemination databases available to other end users requires a full review of the test procedures and data-collection efforts through an analysis of the multiple summary spreadsheets and values being collected. This report represents the analysis for NBG-17 Billet V104 and facilitates release of associated data to the NDMAS custodians. Millions of raw data points have been collected during testing and quantification analyses for these billets. The summary scalar property values and supplementary traceability data are collected into comprehensive spreadsheets. Data sets are composed of single billets of graphite for any given grade, organized by mechanical test-specimen type, and further subdivided into individual spreadsheet tabs according to the specific test or evaluation being performed. A direct analysis of properties was not conducted, and this report does not provide information on the validity or performance characteristics of the graphite itself. Rather, this report is intended as a verification of the completeness of actual data collected in accordance with PLN-3467, “Baseline Graphite Characterization Plan: Electromechanical Testing,” [1] and PLN-3348 “Graphite Mechanical Testing” [2] and their representation of the measurement and test results with sole regard to the graphite billets under evaluation.

Investigation of nonlinear mechanical behavior of two superfine-grained graphites with DIC assisted disc splitting test

Using standardized uniaxial tensile test specimens is not practical due to the limited volumes in irradiation capsules, molten salt degradation facilities, or oxidation apparatus. The ASTM International Standard Test Method for Tensile Strength Estimate by Disc Compression of Manufactured Graphite (ASTM D8289) was developed to provide a convenient way for estimating tensile strength. Unlike the traditional uniaxial tensile test in ASTM C749 (International Standard Test Method for Tensile Stress–Strain of Carbon and Graphite), which uses dog-bone shaped specimens larger than 12.95 mm × 120.65 mm, the ASTM D8289 standard uses smaller discs with diameters of 6–12.7 mm. A digital image correlation (DIC) system, which uses a full-field noncontact surface displacement measurement technique, was applied along with the ASTM D8289 disc splitting test on IG-110 samples and compared with previous measurements from Mersen 2114 samples. Results confirmed that the DIC technique can measure the surface displacement/strain on these small (Ø6 mm × 3 mm) graphite specimens with good repeatability. However, Mersen 2114 and IG-110 samples exhibited strain discrepancies when DIC measurements were compared with analytical and finite element simulation values. The loading history and strain results also indicated different mechanical behaviors between Mersen 2114 and IG-110, particularly the nonlinear behavior of the IG-110 samples. Good agreement was observed by comparing the splitting tensile strengths of two superfine-grained grades with results from other work. The specimen size effect is discussed when comparing the splitting tensile strength with corresponding uniaxial tensile strength of these two graphite grades.

AGC-4 Specimen Post-Irradiation Examination Data Interim Report

This interim report documents preliminary results of the post-irradiation examination material property testing from the fourth advanced graphite creep (AGC), AGC 4, capsule specimens. This is the fourth of a series of six irradiation test trains planned as part of the AGC experiment to fully characterize the neutron irradiation effects and radiation creep behavior of current nuclear graphite grades to moderate dose levels (=7 dpa). The AGC 4 capsule was irradiated in the Idaho National Laboratory Advanced Test Reactor at a nominal temperature of 800°C and to a peak dose of 8 dpa. Half of the AGC-4 specimens were subjected to compressive stresses to induce irradiation creep. Post-irradiation testing and measurement results are reported with the exception of thermal testing, which is still in progress, and irradiation mechanical strength testing. Additionally, some specimens initially deemed too hot to be examined in the ART Graphite laboratory may still be measured. The data reported includes specimen dimensions for both stressed and unstressed specimens to establish the irradiation creep rates, mass and dimensional data necessary to derive density, elastic constants (Young?s modulus, shear modulus, and Poisson?s ratio) from ultrasonic time of flight velocity measurements, Young?s modulus from the fundamental frequency of vibration, and electrical resistivity. A more complete evaluation of trends in the material property changes, as well as irradiation-induced creep due to the irradiation environment and applied load on the specimens, will be discussed later in AGC 4 post-irradiation examination analysis reports.

Non-destructive structural characterization of graphite components using mechanical resonance and deep learning

As compared to conventional nuclear reactors, microreactors have the potential to significantly reduce construction timelines and capital costs, decreasing the barriers for advanced nuclear reactor technologies. However, the lower power output of these microreactors (typically < 20 MWe) creates challenging economics if operation and maintenance costs cannot be sufficiently reduced. The compact size of these designs presents an opportunity for comprehensive in-situ structural health monitoring to provide real-time feedback in order to reduce operational costs associated with maintenance and downtime. Many microreactor concepts use graphite for both in-core neutron moderation and as a structural material, which has typically required some form of periodic and laborious inspection. This report provides a description and assessment of recent work with graphite to couple acoustic-based experimental measurements and characterization with machine learning models to mature structural health monitoring capabilities and generate benefits for the nuclear microreactor industry. With resilient embedded sensors in development in other programs funded by the US Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy and elsewhere, the work described herein builds upon previously funded efforts to mature non-destructive testing technology that relates measured vibrational signatures to structural changes, using a combination of new experimental measurements and machine learning processing. Building on past successful demonstrations of predictive workflows to identify structural changes in a hexagonal stainless steel test article with excellent acoustic propagation, we first performed baseline characterization on graphite samples with canonical geometries to ensure compatibility and confidence in the applied techniques for a material with distinctly different mechanical properties. In contrast to efforts in previous years, we worked exclusively with unidirectional vibration data that is more comparable to those expected from the existing embedded sensor technologies which are suitable for deployment in a reactor setting. Established acoustic and modern machine-learning-based characterization approaches were applied to the resulting datasets from these simple geometries. Both approaches were found to be highly capable of detecting even small geometric irregularities amongst nominally identical samples. As such, we then moved to testing these approaches for detection of artificial local stress perturbations introduced into a more complex geometry: a hexagonal block with drilled holes. A main outcome of this work is that a generalizable ML workflow can be used to detect and predict the characteristics of small artificial anomalies in a graphite component with a relevant geometry. While this work was performed using surficial vibration data, we expect the approach to be flexible and viable for other monitoring scenarios, such as those with different arrangements or types of sensor arrays. As compared to previously funded efforts, an existing ML workflow based on neural networks was enhanced through the addition of recently developed Fourier neural operators. As applied to previously collected and new vibration datasets, prediction accuracies of anomaly characterizations were greatly improved with minimal added computational cost. As trained on small durations of vibration data (tens of seconds) collected over a realistic number of locations, the model was able to reliably determine the presence of a subtle stress anomaly and begin to provide location estimates. Such an approach is likely to be viable for more relevant reactor damage scenarios for graphite components, such as progressive crack growth or creep.

Combining 3D printing of copper current collectors and electrophoretic deposition of electrode materials for structural lithium-ion batteries

Serving as a proof of concept, additive manufacturing and electrophoretic deposition are leveraged in this work to enable structural lithium-ion batteries with load-bearing and energy storage dual functionality. The preparation steps of a complex 3D printed copper current collector, involving the formulation of a photocurable resin formulation, as well as the vat photopolymerization process followed by a precursors-based solution soaking step and thermal post-processing are presented. Compression and microhardness testing onto the resulting 3D printed copper current collector are shown to demonstrate adequate mechanical performance. Electrophoretic deposition of graphite as a negative electrode active material and other additives was then performed onto the 3D printed copper collector, with the intention to demonstrate energy storage functionality. Half-cell electrochemical cycling of the 3D multi-material current collector/negative electrode versus lithium metal finally demonstrates that structural battery components can be successfully obtained through this approach.

Characterizing Hazardous Gases from NMC811 Materials and Coin Cells with TGA and Tube-Furnace FTIR-MS Evolved-Gas-Analysis

Abuse testing is useful for informing the risks of different battery chemistries but has been limited to larger formats. This paper conducted thermal abuse tests at the smaller coin cell level to determine its relevance in specifying vent gas flammability and toxicity. A nitrogen purge carried the evolved gases into a parallel Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and a mass spectrometer (MS) downstream of the tube furnace. The experimental system was validated by comparing evolved gas data for single components between the tube furnace system and a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) instrument. Multiple samples were tested during validation, including CaCO3, electrolyte, delithiated NMC 811 cathode, and lithiated graphite anode. Temperature-resolved gas evolution of HF, CO2, CO, H2, and hydrocarbons from isolated components helped to characterize the emission sources. A previously unreported H2 generation mechanism was found. It was shown that the reduced NMC cathode acts as a catalyst to crack polypropylene-decomposed hydrocarbons into H2 at around 450 degrees C. It was also shown, while studying LiPF6 thermal decomposition, that using the tube furnace with a coin cell casing as the sample holder has some advantages for evolved-gas analysis of environmentally sensitive samples relative to testing in TGA instruments. After validation with single components, a fully charged NMC 811 coin cell was failed in the tube furnace. The measured evolved gases were found to be a combination of the species measured from the single component tests. H2 formation related to the reduced cathode was found to have greater abundance than H2 formed from the anode. Hydrogen fluoride emission factors and diethyl carbonate conversion emission factors assist in understanding the gaseous hazards for larger format cells.

Robust Solar Receivers Using MAX Phase Materials

This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy under the Solar Energy Technologies Office Award Number 35928. The objective of the proposed effort was to develop and optimize additive manufacturing technologies for low-cost fabrication of high-temperature receivers using MAX phase-based materials (Ti 3 SiC 2 and Ti 3 AlC 2 ). MAX phase materials are a group of ternary metal carbides and nitrides where M stands for an early transition metal element, A is a group 13–16 element, and X is C and/or N. In Phase 1, the binder jetting additive manufacturing process was used to synthesize and characterize the Ti 3 SiC 2 MAX phase material. The typical process involved first producing a TiC preform using binder jetting followed by infiltration of the preform with silicon melt to form Ti 3 SiC 2 in situ. The reaction-infiltrated samples showed formation of MAX phase in the sample core; however, the surface showed cracking. Various process conditions—cooling rates, hold times, Si proportion, etc.—were varied to minimize the surface cracking. The fabricated MAX phase core was characterized by microstructure analysis and evaluations of mechanical properties such as hardness and thermal shock. In Phase 2, the focus included fabrication of Ti 3 SiC 2 MAX phase materials by spark plasma sintering (SPS) and synthesis of Ti 3 AlC 2 MAX phase materials by the Al melt infiltration process. It is expected that Al infiltration will not cause sample cracking, since Al does not expand during solidification. In addition, other processing approaches were investigated to fabricate the MAX phase materials, such as SPS with a graphite bedding approach for producing short-length Ti 3 AlC 2 MAX phase tubes for demonstration of prototypical Concentrating Solar Power receiver tubes. Fabricated samples underwent thermo-mechanical testing to validate the materials for the solar receiver application at temperatures >1000°C. In Phase 3, the effort focused on the development and optimization of the Ti-Al-C MAX phase composite material using the Al melt infiltration approach. We started with optimization of precursor powders and making preform structures by either pressing them in a die or using the binder jetting additive manufacturing process followed by Al melt infiltration. In addition, we investigated the formation of preform structures by cold isostatic pressing followed by Al melt infiltration for making Ti-Al-C MAX phase composite. Thermo-mechanical characterizations, such as creep, strength, and thermal shock, were conducted to establish the structures’ performance.

Utilization of Carbon Supply Chain Wastes and Byproducts to Manufacture Graphite for Energy Storage Applications

This project explored how coal and waste coal can be transformed into high-value graphite used in batteries for electric vehicles and power grids. A manufacturing technique that converts coal into carbon foam and subsequently graphite was developed and refined to improve the thermal and mechanical properties of the resulting materials. Cost-effectiveness and environmental impacts were also evaluated. Coal-derived graphite, especially when processed at high temperatures, was shown to perform comparably to commercial graphite in battery tests. Advanced computer simulations were used to model battery behavior and predict long-term performance, demonstrating that coal-based graphite has the potential to support electric vehicle deployment while reducing reliance on imported materials. This work offers a promising pathway for cleaner energy storage solutions and creates economic opportunities for coal-reliant communities by generating new uses for mining byproducts.

Analytical models of hydrogen transport in graphite

The importance of graphite-hydrogen chemical reactions to fusion, fission, and hydrogen storage applications, combined with the rapidly evolving knowledge on the underlying mechanisms, has led to the development of multiple models to describe hydrogen transport in graphite. Significant differences exist among these models, resulting from discrepancies in the modeling assumptions, intended degree of fidelity, and conditions of applicability. This paper attempts at reconciling these apparent differences by providing a comprehensive description of the constitutive equations governing hydrogen transport in graphite at high-temperature, identifying outstanding gaps in knowledge, illustrating how these different models approach them, and proposing alternative analytical formulations grounded on experimental results from hydrogen-graphite studies. Governing equations, closing relations, and simplifying assumptions are discussed for hydrogen transport at the inter-granular and intra-granular level, accompanied by compiled experimental data and illustrated energy diagrams associated to the proposed transport mechanisms. Analytical formulations are provided to reproduce competing hypotheses on the mechanisms, supporting the development of a range of computational models that can enable resolution of outstanding knowledge gaps through comparative testing against experimental data.

HDG-1 Experiment Irradiation Monitoring Data Qualification Final Report

SUMMARY The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) Graphite Research and Development (GRD) Program is conducting a series of six experiments to quantify the effects of irradiation on nuclear-grade graphite. This report documents the qualification of irradiation monitoring data for the fifth experiment, High Dose Graphite-1 (HDG-1). Qualified monitoring data are required by the ART program to support the design and licensing of the first high-temperature reactor (HTR) nuclear plant. Data are classified as Qualified if they meet the usage requirements described in the experiment planning and quality assurance (QA) documents, Failed if they do not meet those requirements and provide no usable information, or Trend if they do not fully meet all requirements but still provide useful information subject to an assessment of how any deficiencies may affect a particular use of the data. HDG-1 irradiation began with Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) Cycle 168B on August 24, 2020, and concluded after Cycle 173C on January 27, 2025. The HDG-1 capsule was removed from the reactor core twice—during core internal change (CIC) Cycle 170A and powered axial locator mechanism (PALM) Cycle 172A—to prevent overheating of the graphite specimens during high-power PALM cycles. The capsule was therefore irradiated during a total of seven normal ATR cycles: 168B, 169A, 171A, 171B, 173A, 173B, and 173C. Irradiation monitoring data evaluated in this report include thermocouple (TC) temperature, gas flow rate, gas moisture, gas pressure, specimen load, and graphite stack displacement. Temperature. A total of 14,508,065 TC temperature records were captured. Of these, 13,901,785 (95.8%) are Qualified and 606,280 (4.2%) are Failed. The principal source of failed temperature data was the instrument failure of TC-9 (Zone 2) on June 24, 2024, and TC-10 (Zone 1) on July 5, 2024, near the end of Cycle 173A, which resulted in 595,554 Failed readings. An additional 379 missing values and 10,347 slightly negative values from TC-13 during ATR outages are also Failed. Neither TC-9 nor TC-10 was used as a temperature-control TC, and their failures did not compromise capsule condition monitoring. Correlation analysis of all 13 TCs found no evidence of virtual junction formation. Control chart analysis revealed clear downward drift of approximately 80°C for TC-6 (Zone 3) relative to other stable TCs, and possible downward drift of approximately 60°C for TC-13 relative to the Zone 5 control TC (TC-1), though TC-13 remained consistent with the Zone 2 control TC (TC-12). Gas flow. A total of 20,088,090 gas flow rate records were captured. Of these, 19,941,463 (99.3%) are Qualified and 146,627 (0.7%) are Failed due to missing values. All argon, helium, and total gas flow data were within expected ranges throughout the irradiation. Gas moisture. A total of 1,116,005 outlet gas moisture values were captured. Of these, 1,101,421 (98.7%) are Qualified and 14,584 (1.3%) are Failed, comprising 14,556 out-of-range values and 28 missing values. The out-of-range moisture values exceeded 22,000 ppmv for approximately 1 week at the beginning of Cycle 173A, when accumulated moisture evaporated after the capsule was retrieved from water storage during PALM Cycle 172A and reinserted into the east flux trap. Moisture levels returned to below 25 ppmv for the remaining three cycles, and the transient high-moisture event did not affect the integrity of specimen irradiation. Gas pressure. A total of 7,812,035 gas pressure values were captured. Of these, 6,642,048 (85.0%) are Qualified and 1,169,987 (15.0%) outlet pressure values are Failed, comprising 718,537 zero outlet pressure values due to sensor failure from Cycle 168B through Cycle 171B, 54,550 missing values, and 396,900 too-low outlet pressure values, ranging from 1.1 to 1.6 psia after sensor replacement during Cycle 173A. Load. A total of 6,696,030 load values were captured. Of these, 6,694,580 (99.98%) are Qualified and 1,450 (0.02%) are Failed due to missing values. Applied loads to the six specimen stacks were stable throughout the irradiation. Stack displacement. A total of 6,696,030 displacement values were captured. Of these, 5,713,297 (85.32%) are Qualified and 3,781 (0.06%) are Failed due to missing values. Stack displacement increased consistently throughout the irradiation, reaching approximately 3.08 in. for Channels 5 and 6 by the end of irradiation. 978,952 (14.62%) substantially elevated displacements observed for Channel 6 beginning in Cycle 171A and for Channel 5 beginning in Cycle 173A are assigned Trend status. Raising pressure. A total of 1,115,999 raising pressure values were captured. Of these, 1,115,430 (99.95%) are Qualified and 569 (0.05%) are Failed due to missing values. Ram pressure. A total of 6,696,030 ram pressure values were captured. Of these, 6,692,249 (99.95%) are Qualified and 3,484 (0.05%) are Failed due to missing values. Stack raising was perf
