Abstract: The graphite grade ATR-2E was developed as a reference material for future High-Temperature Reactors (HTR) in the framework of Germany‘s former R&D; Programme „HTR with Spherical Fuel Elements“ by the former company Sigri Elektrographit GmbH. From 1975 to about 1990, the former Kernforschungsanlage Jülich GmbH investigated and tested this graphite in detail including numerous irradiation experiments up to very high fast neutron fluences. The investigations involved in particular the physical properties of apparent density, dynamic Young’s modulus, thermal expansivity, electrical resistivity, and thermal conductivity, the linear dimensional changes, and fast neutron-irradiation-induced creep under mechanical load. The report is not only a phenomenological description of the irradiation behaviour of ATR-2E graphite, but also presents all numerical data available at present.
