The available data on the effects of fast neutron irradiation on the properties of fine-grain (POCO) graphites at temperatures between 950 and 1400°C are collected. New results are presented for a number of fine-grain graphites irradiated at 600°C. The results are discussed in terms of the useful lifetimes of the graphite as a function of temperature and the way this is related to crystallite behavior.
