Investigations on the Role of Surface Layers in HLW Glass Leaching
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
A corrosion test series was performed to clarify the role of reaction product layers on the corrosion of a simulated HLW borosilicate glass in a salt brine under hydrothermal conditions. The layers were unprotective at 200°C. At 120°C, slight protective effects ocurred when the leachant contained dissolved reaction products. The consequence for the long term behaviour between 120 and 200°C is a constant glass dissolution rate.
