Passive Film Stability in Alloy 22


EMSL Project ID
7993

Abstract

This program activity will involve the testing of Haynes Alloy 22 to determine if a build up of S will lead to the breakdown of a possive film. This is among the most stable alloys known and it is planned for use at the Yucca Mountain waste storage site. We will be simulating a long term build up S and determine if it remains in the film and causes breakdown or if it dissolves in the oxide and is not a problem.
