Uranium and U–Zr and U–Ru alloy corrosion rates in the transpassive state

Electrochemical studies of reactor-grade uranium metal and its alloys with Zr and Ru in neutral electrolyte (0.1 M NaClO 4, pH 3.0–9.0) in the potential region close to uranium's transpassivation threshold were performed. Transpassivation potentials from 320 mV/Ag/AgCl (U–1.3 at.% Zr) to 470 mV...
