Abstract
•The KIC and T0 of the RPV material were calculated using impact specimens.•KIC was obtained form impact specimen’s fracture, F-t curve, size, shape factor.•T0 was obtained by the multi-temperature formula applicable to the impact test.•KIC, T0 are consistent with results obtained by CTt according to the ASTM standard.
