摘要
Microbiologically influenced corrosion has been documented for all metals and alloys currently in use or proposed for packaging nuclear wastes, with the possible exception of titanium. Selection of a material that will provide a reliable physical barrier to prevent leakage of radionuclides for 10(3)-10(6) years will depend on a thorough understanding of mechanisms for microbiologically influenced corrosion; the geological, microbiological, and chemical environments of storage sites; and their evolution over time.
