abstract = {The first wall armor of a DEMOnstration fusion power plant
(DEMO) is planned to be built from tungsten. However, in
case of loss-of-coolant accident with air ingress, the
temperature of the first wall may exceed 1000 °C due to
nuclear decay heat. At such temperatures, tungsten forms
volatile radioactive oxides, which may be mobilized into the
environment at a rate of 10–600 kg per hour.Advanced
“smart” tungsten alloys adjust their properties to the
environment: during the plasma operation, preferential
sputtering will form almost pure tungsten surface facing the
plasma. In case of an accident, the remaining alloying
elements form a protective layer, preventing tungsten
mobilization.The new smart alloys contain tungsten (W),
chromium (Cr) and yttrium (Y). The first bulk smart alloys
produced using field-assisted sintering technique, revealed
excellent oxidation resistance for a timescale of
10–20 hours. W-Cr-Y systems underwent combined plasma
and oxidation test. During plasma exposure, smart alloys
demonstrated nearly the same mass loss as the reference pure
tungsten samples. Subsequent oxidation confirmed superior
oxidation resistance of new alloys compared to the former
W-Cr-Ti systems.Experiments attaining oxidation times and
plasma fluence required for DEMO, are started. First results
show necessity in further improvement of W-Cr-Y alloys.},
