Materials used in nuclear reactors face many challenges due to elevated temperature operation, high neutron flux induced transmutations and radiation damage. During the course of the transition from Gen III to Gen IV or fission technologies, the advanced materials and manufacturing technologies will develop cross-cutting technologies in support of current fleet and next-generation advanced nuclear reactor. China will showcase the comprehensive framework conducting design, manufacturing, evaluation and application of materials under national collaborative mechanism. Also, China will unleash the power of artificial intelligence in materials design to accelerate the deployment of advanced materials and manufacturing technologies that have cross-reactor impacts. This event is organized by China.

This event will be held on Wednesday, 17 September 2025, from 9.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. in Conference Room CR1, C Building, second floor.
