Abstract
AbstractThe morphology and chemical structure of surface layers formed during the aqueous leaching of the SRP-type borosilicate waste glass in simulated ground waters have been studied by SEM/EDXS, XRD, and surface spectroscopy. Comparison of layers formed in deionized, silicate, and brine waters shows the processes of both corrosion and precipitation to be highly localized. The corrosion process proceeds on the glass surface preferentially at points of stress and inhomogeneity. Crystalline and noncrystalline precipitates form in well-defined regions within the surface layers indicating the layer development process to be dominated by species migration and local saturation effects.
