Fundamental and applied experimental investigations of corrosion of steel by LBE under controlled conditions: kinetics, chemistry, morphology, and surface preparation: quarterly report (January 2005-April 2005)

摘要

This project has four components: The fabrication of a materials test apparatus with unique capabilities, Comparative studies of steel corrosion under gas phase conditions comparable to the Lead Bismuth Eutectic (LBE) oxygen control conditions, Isotope labeling studies, and Collaborative efforts with other workers in the field. Summary of accomplishments: Started occupation of the High Temperature Materials Experimental Facility. Presented a paper at the meeting of the American Chemical Society in San Diego in March 13-17. Currently reviving the ion beam for implantation experiments. Currently analyzing 38 steel samples from the DELTA loop from LANL.
