ABSTRACTThe deep geologic repository (DGR) concept is one of the approaches being considered in Canada for long-term management of used CANDU fuel. The Canadian concept entails encapsulating used CANDU fuel bundles in durable used-fuel containers (UFCs) and burying the UFCs in an engineered repository at depth in the Canadian Shield. Currently, an updated concept for a DGR is being prepared by Ontario Power Generation (OPG).This technical paper describes OPG's studies from 1999 to 2002 that have led to the development of an updated reference UFC design. The updated UFC design holds 324 used CANDU fuel bundles. It consists of an outer corrosion-resistant oxygen-free phosphorous-doped copper vessel and an inner load-bearing steel vessel. The used-fuel bundles are placed within a fuel basket for handling and loading into the UFC. This reference UFC design would be used for future safety assessment and engineering studies.

Durability of adhesive bonded joints in moisture and salt spray environments is essential to USAF aircraft. Structural bonding technology for aerospace applications has depended for many years on the preparation of aluminum surfaces by a sulfuric acid/sodium dichromate (FPL etch) treatment. Recently, specific thin film anodizing techniques, phosphoric acid, and chromic acid anodizing have been developed which not only provide good initial bond strengths but vastly improved environmental durability. These thin anodic films are in contrast to the commonly used thick anodic films such as the sulfuric acid or "hard" sulfuric acid anodic films which are highly corrosion resistant in themselves, but which do not provide good initial bond strengths, particularly in low temperature peel.The objective of this study was to determine the characteristics of anodic films on aluminum alloys that make them corrosion resistant. The chemical composition, physical morphology and structure, and mechanical properties of the thin oxide films were to be defined and correlated with the environmental stability of these surfaces in humidity and salt spray. It is anticipated that anodic film characteristics and corrosion resistance will vary with the anodizing processing conditions.
