It's not only the neutron flux which degrades nuclear plant, there are
also thermal ageing processes, not to mention accumulation of creep and
fatigue damage. And all of these processes apply to parts of coal fired
plant too.

I read an interesting article recently that said material
wear/fatiguing/embrittlement has to be treated differently in a nuclear
environment because of the intense radiation causing subtle changes in
the atomic structure of materials.

I've had a hunt and can't find it again, but this Wonkypedia page covers
the basics:
