N2 - It has been internationally recognized that materials science and materials development are key issues
for the implementation of innovative reactor systems such as those defined in the framework of the Generation
IV and advanced fuel cycle initiatives. In Europe, materials studies are considered within the Strategic
Research Agenda of the Sustainable Nuclear Energy Technology Platform. Moreover, the European
Commission has recently launched a 7th Framework Programme Research Project, named ‘Generation
IV and Transmutation Materials’, that has the objective of addressing materials issues which are crosscutting
for more than one type of innovative reactor systems. The present work has been prepared with
the aim of describing the rationale, the objectives, the work plan and the expected results of this research
project.
