Description

It is important to study the corrosion mechanism of low carbon steel container and the adsorption behavior of plutonium by corrosion products for evaluating the safety of radioactive waste disposal sites. The study of corrosion behavior of low carbon steel packaging container in radioactive waste repository and the adsorption behavior of corrosion products on plutonium can provide theoretical basis for accurate prediction of plutonium migration behavior and safety evaluation of repository. In this paper, the possible corrosion mechanism of packaging container materials is summarized under the condition of waste geological disposal, and the adsorption behavior of plutonium on corrosion products, the main factors affecting the adsorption and the adsorption mechanism are systematically summarized, which provides a reference for further study on the adsorption mechanism of plutonium on corrosion products in the future.
