    Comparative effect of alkaline elements and calcium on alteration of International Simple Glass

    In the concept of deep geological repository for High Level Wastes, the chemical elements present in the media are expected to impact the long-term behavior of the glass. The effects of Ca, K, and Cs on Intern...

    Glass-Iron-Clay interactions in a radioactive waste geological disposal: a multiscale approach

    In France, nuclear glass canisters arising from spent fuel reprocessing are expected to be disposed in a deep geological repository using a multi-barrier concept (glass/canister/steel overpack and claystone). ...
