Furniture Rack Corrosion Coupon Surveillance - 2012 Update

“…Most of the furniture racks as well as the coupons in the surveillance program had an air-formed oxide (~ 5 nm) prior to immersion in the basin [8,9]. Prior to cleanup of the basin water, the thin oxide lead to a low pitting resistance especially in comparison to the store fuel, which have a much thicker oxide formed during reactor operation.…”
