4.1 The purpose of this practice is to identify sample and test parameters that may influence graphite irradiation test results. This practice should not be construed as a requirement or recommendation that proprietary information be disclosed.

4.2 Irradiation results on graphite include dimensional changes and changes in properties that are used in reactor design. The irradiation data are reported in government documents, open literature publications, and are assembled into data manuals for use by reactor designers.

1.1 This practice covers information recommended for inclusion in reports giving graphite irradiation results.
