Advanced Scientific Materials for Fusion Breakthroughs
INFORM Webinar | For anyone interested in Advanced Scientific Materials for Fusion Breakthroughs
This INFORM Webinar
xplores the vital role of advanced materials in enabling nuclear fusion, focusing on the extreme conditions within fusion reactors—like extreme heat, neutron flux, plasma interactions—and the materials designed to withstand them.
It highlights Goodfellow’s contributions to fusion breakthroughs including their involvement in the 2022 LLNL fusion success. Showcasing specific material solutions for hydrogen permeation, reactor construction, high-temperature ceramics, and radiation-resistant coatings.
The session also discusses the UK’s strategic investment in fusion, such as the STEP programme aiming for a fusion power plant by 2040. It's targeted at professionals and researchers in materials science, engineering, and nuclear energy.
Ideal for IOM3 members, materials scientists, engineers, nuclear energy professionals (especially in fusion), and anyone interested in sustainable energy and related technological innovations.
