Degradation mechanism of lead-vanado-iodoapatite (IAPT) in NaCl solution at 90 °C was investigated through systematic characterization of surface morphology, microstructure and microchemistry evolution of the alteration layer. Nano-scale characterization indicated that IAPT crystals degraded from grain boundaries toward inner grains, forming ultrafine Cl-bearing crystallites. A coupled interface dissolution-reprecipitation replacement mechanism and the ion exchange between Cl- and I- across the degradation zone may together play roles in determining the nano-scale degradation behavior of IAPT. This work highlights the degradation through multiple reactions and elemental transport across the liquid-solid and solid-solid interfaces at length scales from sub-millimeter to nanoscale.
