Abstract

Abstract

Plasma facing materials（PFM） has been one of the most important technological questions for fusion reactor study.Among of traditional PFM candidates（C,Be,and W）,W materials exhibits the most promising applications.However,pure W still has several drawbacks such as low re-crystallization tempera-ture,and high ductile-brittle transition temperature.Therefore,great efforts have been devoted to new W-based alloy and composite materials in recent years.In this paper,the classification and the research pro-gress of the W-based materials are reviewed.Especially,the underlying microscopic mechanisms of enhanced performance of these materials are summarized.At last,the research prospect for W-based PFM is proposed.
