ABSTRACTThe current status of SYNROC C research and development by the Australian Atomic Energy Commission is reviewed. A non-radioactive fabrication demonstration line designed to produce 10 cm o.d., 90 cm long, cylinders of SYNROC canned in stainless steel by the method of in-can hot pressing is being commissioned. Leach tests are proving the excellent leach resistance of SYNROC. Accelerated radiation damage testing using fast neutrons has simulated storage times of up to 6.7×105 years. Thermophysical properties of SYNROC have been measured over the temperature range 20–650°C.

This paper is a comprehensive review of the state-of-knowledge in the field of radiation effects in glasses that are to be used for the immobilization of high-level nuclear waste and plutonium disposition. The current status and issues in the area of radiation damage processes, defect generation, microstructure development, theoretical methods and experimental methods are reviewed. Questions of fundamental and technological interest that offer opportunities for research are identified.
