Corrosion remains one of the key issues affecting the performance
and availability of nuclear power plants. Therefore, reliable
in-plant corrosion monitoring methods are essential both for the
future operation of existing plants and to ensure the safety of
future nuclear waste disposal systems. In two parts, this book was
stimulated by a workshop organised by EFC Working Party 4 on
Nuclear Corrosion and the European Cooperative Group on Corrosion
Monitoring of Nuclear Materials (EGC-COMON). The first part deals
mainly with research into the detection of stress corrosion crack
initiation in nuclear power plant environments (essentially high
temperature water at 300 ) by various methods, particularly the
electrochemical noise technique but also including the
electrochemical impedance, acoustic emission and direct current
potential drop methods. The second part addresses the goal to
develop in-situ techniques and includes examples of the application
of electrochemical corrosion potential monitoring. This book will
be of particular interest to scientists and engineers concerned
with the mitigation of corrosion in nuclear power plants and the
long-term storage of radioactive waste.
