TL;DR: In this paper, a thin-layer corrosion cell was used to measure the corrosion potential of used nuclear fuel in groundwater as a function of fuel cooling time, and the predicted rates were appropriately applied to dissolution in cracks and fissures.

TL;DR: In this paper, the corrosion behavior of specimens cut from nuclear grade CANDU pellets has been studied electrochemically and under open-circuit corrosion conditions in hydrogen peroxide containing, slightly alkaline (pH=9.5) sodium perchlorate solution with and without added carbonate.

TL;DR: In this article, the suitability of irradiated UO 2 -doped thoria as a waste form for direct geological disposal was investigated at room temperature and near 100°C in near neutral and acidic water (pH 3).

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of radicals formed during radiolysis of water, on the oxidation and dissolution of UO2 were investigated as a function of dose rate and total dose.

TL;DR: The effects of groundwater radiolysis on the oxidation and dissolution of UO2 has been studied in this article, where an electrochemical cell and a UO 2 electrode were designed to do in situ electrochemical measurements in gamma fields.
