【 摘 要 】

The goal of this research is to develop new methods to mitigate corrosion in DOE HLW tanks. To accomplish this, we will characterize the parameters that influence the transition from metastable pitting (also referred to as electrochemical noise) to stable pitting. These parameters include (1) the development of the critical pitting solution chemistry, (2) metastable pit morphologies and dynamics.
