A study of the effects of fast neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of polycrystalline graphite is reported. Irradiation to a maximum dose of 1.14 x 10" n/cm2 at -50Β°C increased the Young's modulus by 140%. The linearity of the compressive stress-strain curve increased and the hysteresis
