Abstract
When superconducting magnets are utilized in fusion reactors, the magnet components are exposed to fast neutrons and γ rays. Among the magnet components, organic materials used as insulating materials are the least radiation resistant;1 therefore, their mechanical property changes after irradiation at low temperatures are studied in the present work.
