Abstract
Torsional shear strengths of various SiC joints were evaluated following irradiation at 270-310 °C to 8.7 dpa. Strength degradation by the irradiation likely occurred in the Mo diffusion bond. No obvious strength degradation was found in the MAX phase and hybrid polymer/CVD joints. The irradiation caused large deviation of the strength of Ti diffusion bond, TEP slurry and tape joints. The cause of this deviation will be investigated based on microstructural analysis in future work.
