abstract = {Tungsten (W) is a prime candidate as first wall armor
material of future fusion power plants as W withstands
extreme particle, heat, and radiation loads without forming
long-lived radioactive waste. The release of radioactive
material from the reactor to the environment should be
suppressed in case of an accident such as a loss of coolant
(LOCA) with simultaneous air ingress into the vacuum vessel.
W oxidizes and sublimates in case of a LOCA. Therefore,
oxidation resistant tungsten, chromium, yttrium (W–Cr–Y)
alloys are developed to provide intrinsic safety in case of
such an accident.In this paper, the optimization of the
yttrium (Y) concentration is presented on bulk samples
compacted by field assisted sintering technology (FAST). W
with 11.4 weight $(wt)\%$ Cr and $0.6 wt\%$ Y appears to
be an optimum regarding the oxidation resistance. Further,
first preparations for industrial upscaling, which may
increase the impurity level, are addressed. The oxygen (O)
content is varied systematically. It is shown that a good
oxidation resistance requires a low O level.The exposure of
the material to fusion neutrons is another issue addressed
on W–Cr–Y alloys. In a non-activated environment it is
shown that $1 wt\%$ rhenium (Re) dramatically changes the
oxidation kinetics: at 1273 K the mass gain of
W–Cr–Y–Re follows a cubic rate law while W–Cr–Y
follows a linear rate law for two days. Further, the
influence of the alloying elements on the neutron transport
and transmutation of W is studied by simulating the exposure
of spatially heterogeneous high-resolution models of the
W–Cr–Y alloys to 14 MeV fusion neutrons.},
