Abstract

The comparison of laboratory data from the corrosion of borosilicate nuclear waste glass (German SM513LW11 and French R7T7) with data from the Materials Interface Interactions Test (MIIT) and Repository Systems Simulation Test (RSST) illustrates the inherent limitations of in situ tests. Although in situ tests may confirm the short term behavior of waste forms and identify phenomena associated with the repository system, they do not provide the fundamental basis for the extrapolation of long-term behavior.
