Grade 91 ferritic/martensitic steel is a promising structural or cladding material for various nuclear reactor applications. The main objective of this project is to develop a method and process model that provides in-situ tempering of Grade 91 radiation-tolerant steel during laser additive manufacturing (LAM). A second objective involves the fabrication of a subscale grid spacer prototype for fast reactors using LAM. Here, grade 91 was fabricated via the Directed Energy Deposition Laser technique. This alternative manufacturing process potentially enables tailoring of the mechanical properties through increased control of the microstructure of the product. Aimed at linking fabrication to performance via defining the process-structure-property relationships, the current research includes mechanical testing using microhardness, tensile, and in-situ nanoindentation hardness, coupled with electron diffraction-based microstructure characterization.
