Abstract
Gas release studies have been conducted on five explosion cladded materials which are of potential use in protection of fusion reactor first wall components. Both one and two layer claddings on OFHC Cu were studied at room temperature, 100 °, and 250 °C. Total outgassing rate and mass analysis experiments were conducted. For purposes of comparison, a 304 LN stainless steel sample was also analyzed. Results indicated comparable outgassing rates for the stainless steel and cladded samples at room temperature, but substantially higher outgassing rates at 250 °C for the cladded samples.
