Abstract

Iron released by steel corrosion was found to be a key impurity in reactions with dissolved oxygen in liquid lead–bismuth eutectic alloys. The iron–oxygen–magnetite equilibrium was characterized, allowing the quantification of phenomena that are important for long-term operation of lead-alloy based installations such as corrosion rate control and management of precipitates.
