Oxidation resistance of bulk plasma-facing tungsten alloys

Tungsten (W) currently is the main candidate as plasma-facing armour material for the first wall of future fusion reactors, like DEMO. Advantages of W include a high melting point, high thermal conductivity, low tritium retention, and low erosion yield. However, in case of an accident, air ingress i...
