The Reduced Activation Ferritic/Martensitic(RAFM) steel is considered as the primary candidate structural material for DEMO and the first fusion plant,and widely studied in the world.China low activation martensitic steel(CLAM) is being developed in Institute of Plasma Physics,Chinese Academy of Sciences,under wide collaboration with many other domestic and foreign institutes and universities.This paper summarized the main RD progress on CLAM,which covered composition optimization of the CLAM,smelting and processing techniques,physical and mechanical property test and evaluation before and after irradiation,compatibility with liquid LiPb,welding techniques etc.Finally,further research and development,and the prospects on its application were stated.
