General corrosion studies of candidate container materials for the basalt waste isolation project. [BWIP]

摘要: The general corrosion studies program consists of three types tests to determine the behavior candidate container materials for Basalt Waste Repository. Air/Steam simulate conditions in repository operating period, and static refreshed pressure vessel post-closure conditions. Copper iron-base alloys their weldments are being tested. Weight loss surface analysis data from two short-term reported. In these, effect groundwater, that packing material air/steam environment were studied. Early results long-term testing alos included.
