Container Assessment - Corrosion Study of HLW Container Materials.

摘要

During this quarter work has been started on the corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement behavior of commercially pure titanium (ASTM Grade 2), Ti-Code-12 (ASTM Grade 12), and OFHC copper, which are primary candidate materials for high level waste containers. The test environment used is a simulated brine solution typical of bedded salt at 150C or room temperature.
