THE FFFECTS OF THE GLASS SURFACE AREA/SOLUTION VOLUME RATIO ON GLASS CORROSION: A CRITICAL REVIEW
William L. Ebert
ABSTRACTThis report reviews and summarizes the present state of knowledge regarding the effects of the glass surface area/solution volume (SA/V) r… Show more
“…5b with corresponding values from previous tests conducted under the same conditions with reference DWPF glasses made with frits SRL 131 and SRL 202 (Ebert 1994). The glass made with SRL 131 frit was formulated to represent Purex glass and the glass made with SRL 202 frit was formulated to represent the design basis glass.…”

“…penetrable by the inert gas (nitrogen for this work) are accounted for in the surface area. This surface area may be different from the surface area penetrable by water during a leaching test 38 but is the best measurement available. The SA/V ratio is simply calculated by dividing the measured BET surface area by the leachant volume:…”
“…Data used in these analyses include at least ten years of testing for the static glass tests (Ebert 1995;Buck and Bates 1999; DTN: LL991110251021.099), over ten years of testing for the glass drip tests Fortner et al 1997aFortner et al , 1997b; DTN: LL000205551021.118), and over four years of testing for the spent fuel tests (Finn et al 1994a(Finn et al , 1994b; DTN: LL991001251021.090). The methods employed for colloid characterization in this section are TEM and filtration (analysis of filtrates with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) or alpha spectroscopy).…”

“…A summary of the test results and a detailed description of the test procedure and glass compositions is found elsewhere (Ebert andBates 1993, Ebert 1995). The types of glasses used in the tests were Savannah River Laboratory (SRL) 202A (actinide doped), 202U (no actinides except uranium), and 131A (actinide doped).…”

“…Data used in these analyses include normalized mass loss (NL) data on the corrosion of the waste form and normalized rate (NR) of formation of Pu-associated with colloids. The data encompasses several years of testing for the static glass tests (Ebert 1995), over ten years of testing for the glass drip tests Fortner et al 1997aFortner et al , 1997bDTN: LL000205551021.118), and testing data from 1.6 to 4.8 years of spent fuel tests (Finn et al 1994a(Finn et al , 1994b; DTN: LL991001251021.090). The methods employed for colloid quantification in this section are filtration (analysis of filtrates with ICP-MS or alpha spectroscopy).…”
