In a comparison of Ni and stainless steel subsize tensile specimens, it was found that property changes induced by irradiation to an estimated fast flux of 4 x 10/sup 20/ nvt were qualitatively similar to those produced by cold working. No basis for direct correlation was found. Tensile properties, elongation, hardness, density, electrical resistivity, corrosion, and annealing results are presented. It was determined that irradiation left the nickel and stainless steel specimens more ductile than did cold working to a comparable ultimate strength. Radiation hardening was found to be completely removed by a 1- hr anneal at 500 deg C, whereas temperatures of 600 to 800 deg C were required to anneal coldwork hardening. (auth
