Abstract
Strength, elongation, corrosion resistance, homogeneity, purity, compatibility with fuel, and resistance to irradiation damage, being main properties of SAP of interest for their application in nuclear technology, are discussed in connection with commercial products; effect on tensile and creep properties of parameters such as size and volume fraction of oxide particles and grain size of aluminum; examination of low-oxide material in as-extruded and in recrystallized state shows that oxide particles are mainly responsible for high strength and low elongation of SAP at elevated temperatures.
