← ScienceWhich consequence results when excessive neutron capture impacts structural alloy's lattice binding?
A)Increased ductile to brittle transition✓
B)Enhanced resistance to thermal creep
C)Improved high-cycle fatigue strength
D)Reduced susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement
💡 Explanation
Neutron capture creates transmutation and lattice defects that weaken atomic binding; because of this, the ductile-to-brittle transition increases drastically, therefore embrittling the material, rather than improving its creep or fatigue resistance.
