THE EFFECT OF HIGH ALPHA RADIATION ON THE CORROSION OF METALS EXPOSED TO CHLORIDE SOLUTIONS
No direct effects of alpha radiation at a level of 2 watts/liter on corrosion of several alloys and glass were found. Secondary effects were noted for Hastelloys B and C and Ti 45A, these effects being attributed to the presence of H/sub 2/O/sub 2/ produced by radiolysis of water. Under some conditions the corrosion rates of Hastelloys B and C were increased and of Ti drastically decreased by the alpha radiation. Corrosion rates of glass and Ta were
