Acceptance Criteria for Polymers in Nuclear Applicatons 2017

Polymeric materials are widely used in the nuclear sector, from small components like O-rings that are regularly exchanged to complex components that are rarely exchanged. In the COMRADE project on acceptance criteria for polymers in nuclear applications, several ageing related issues in NPP environment were studied.

Use, limitations and possibilities of Arrhenius based extrapolations for LTO studies of polymeric materials
Long-term operation of nuclear power plants relies on reliable ageing management of polymeric materials used in safety‑relevant components such as cables, seals and gaskets. Predicting their long‑term performance is essential for safe operation and informed decisions on lifetime extension. This study examines the use of Arrhenius‑based extrapolations in accelerated ageing tests for polymeric materials.
