Short summary
This paper provides an overview of the research on the uniform and localized corrosion behaviour of carbon steel overpack exposed to an artificial concrete pore water solution, representative of the Belgian supercontainer. Very low uniform corrosion rates were measured under these conditions. Moreover, the tests performed up to now have shown that localized corrosion will not represent a thread for the integrity of the overpack under the expected conditions.
