Title: Stress corrosion cracking in canistered waste package containers: Welds and base metals

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/654364· OSTI ID:654364

The current design of waste package containers include outer barrier using corrosion allowable material (CAM) such as A516 carbon steel and inner barrier of corrosion resistant material (CRM) such as alloy 625 and C22. There is concern whether stress corrosion cracking would occur at welds or base metals. The current memo documents the results of our analysis on this topic.
