Lithium-containing ceramics were significant tritium breeders for the fusion blanket concept, for which tritium release performance and mechanical properties serve as the core indicators for evaluating their performance as tritium breeders. The Li4Si0.8Ti0.2O4 material was designed as an advanced tritium breeder and fabricated into ceramic pebbles via ...

Corrosion characteristics of reduced activation ferritic-martensitic steel EUROFER by Li2TiO3 with excess Li [PDF]
In a solid breeding blanket, ceramic breeder pebbles are in contact with reduced activation ferritic martensitic (RAFM) steel at high temperatures for years and accordingly form a corrosion layer on the blanket structural steel.

AbstractThe production of lithium-rich ceramic pebbles is crucial for future fusion reactors, as they are one of the most important components of the tritium-breeding blankets. In order to produce high-quality pebbles, a melt-based fabrication process KALOS (KArlsruhe Lithium OrthoSilicate) has been developed at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology ...
