Abstract
⺠In-situ experiments were conducted to evaluate corrosion rates of depleted uranium. ⺠Samples were corroded in marine sediments, open sea water and two terrestrial soils. ⺠The depleted uranium titanium alloy corroded fastest in the marine environments. ⺠Rates of mass loss can vary through time if corrosion products are not removed. ⺠Laboratory measurements do not replicate the complexities of real environments.
