Summary IAE, Kyoto University • Ferritic steel is the first candidate of fusion blanket structural materials. The issue of high thermal efficiency can be solved by application of ODS steel. Combined utilization of ferritic steel and ODS steel is quite promising for power reactor. • Vanadium alloys and SiC/SiC composites are also desirable for fusion power reactors. Extensive improvements have been achieved so far. • R&D of material processing for production of large-scale component is strongly demanded.
