Fig. 1-10 Comparison of NLR of ROX fuel and glass waste forms

NLRs of Zr and 135Cs for ROX fuels are identified by the symbols and , respectively. NLRs of Si and 135Cs for a glass waste form are zoned by and , respectively. The NLR of Zr, 10-7 g/cm2/day, is 1/1000 or less than the NLR of Si, 10-4 g/cm2/day. Thus, Zr dissolves more slowly by a factor of more than 1000.
