Abstract
Commercial AlMg- and AlMgSi-alloys were irradiated with medium energy (600-800 MeV) protons to a nominal fluence of 3.2 × 1024 p/m2 which yields by calculation a displacement damage of 0.2 dpa and helium and hydrogen generation of 67 and 275 appm, respectively. Post-irradiation tensile testing revealed a very marked degree of irradiation-induced softening in the cold-worked AlMg-alloy as well as in the precipitation-hardened AlMgSi-alloy. The TEM examination of the irradiated specimens showed that neither the cold-work microstructure in the AlMg-alloy nor the G.P. zone type precipitates in the AlMgSi-alloy survive under the irradiation conditions used in the present experiment. Results of complimentary investigations (i.e., hardness measurements, optical microscopy and SEM-fractography) are also presented.
