    Glass Corrosion in the Presence of Iron-Bearing Materials and Potential Corrosion Suppressors

    A complete understanding of radioactive waste glass interactions with near-field materials is essential for appropriate nuclear waste repository performance assessment. In many geologic repository designs, Fe ...

    Apparent Solubility Limit of Nuclear Glass

    Most nuclear glass alteration models are based on a first-order kinetic law of the general type r = r 0 (1–C si/C*) or r = r 0 (1–Q/K). It is generally assumed that the establishment of quasi steady-state concent...

    Single Idealized Cracks: A Tool for Understanding Fractured Glass Block Leaching

    Within the scope of the long term behaviour of the R7T7 glass, which is the French nuclear glass, leaching and its coupling with transport mechanisms is studied. Experiments carried out on a SON 68 glass (inac...

    Long-Term Behavior of Embiez Archaeological Glass: Results after 1800 Years of Alteration in a Marine Environment

    An archaeological glass initially fractured and altered for 1800 years in a marine environment is now being examined by the CEA because of its strong morphological similarity to the nuclear glasses used for im...

    Compositional Effects on the Long-Term Durability of Nuclear Waste Glasses: A Statistical Approach

    As a result of the development of a reference glass formulation for the immobilization of West-Valley nuclear waste, a large number of glass compositions have been tested under a variety of leaching conditions...
