The tensile properties of Incoloy-800 were studied after irradiation in either thermal-fast or fast-neutron spectrums, A general decrease in elevated temperature postirradiation ductility was observed. Similar radiation-induced embrittlement occurred for both thermal-fast and fast-neutron irradiation. The observed embrittlement was more dependent on postirradiation test temperature than irradiation temperature.
