This paper summarizes the vast body of literature (over 200 documents) related to
vitrification of the low-activity waste (LAW) fraction of the Hanford tank wastes. Details are …

Bioactive glasses (BGs) are known for their selective ability to (i) form a mechanically strong
interfacial bond with hard (bone) or soft tissues (gingivae or cartilages)(ie, silica-, silica …

The extent of glass dissolution is dependent on time, temperature, solution chemistry, and
the glass composition, among other factors. To obtain an understanding of the relative …

The alteration of a four-oxide alumino-borosilicate glass close to International Simple Glass
(ISG) was studied in Si saturation conditions at pH 3, pH 7, and pH 9 using solution and post …

Measured salt compositions in dust collected over roughly the last decade from surfaces of
in-service stainless-steel alloys at four locations around the United States are presented …

Glass is a versatile material with a remarkable history and many practical applications. It
plays a critical role in our everyday lives, the advancement of science, and the development …

Nuclear energy is considered a clean, reliable, and an inexhaustible energy source for
power generation. Nuclear power is harnessed from nuclear fission reactions in a dedicated …

This article presents the modeling results from the interaction between simulated nuclear
waste glasses and ordinary Portland cement (OPC). In general, the modeling results are in …

The chemical durability of borosilicate glass used to confine nuclear wastes is known to vary
nonlinearly with their composition, making glass dissolution rate predictions difficult. Here …

Deep geological storage is the accepted solution for the final disposal of high-level
radioactive waste therefore, it is necessary to study the host rock of the planned Hungarian …
