This is an award to provide support for purchase of Lanthanum- Hexaboride electron source for the Department of Civil Engineering's environmental scanning electron microscope. The source is expected to enhance the resolution and contrast of images in the study of biocorrosion of ferrous metals, control of the stability of immobilized contaminants, study of creep in moist rock salt that comprises subsurface geological strata that are planned for use in storage of wastes, and for remediation of radiocolloids. This proposal was submitted in accord with conditions listed in the publication Research Equipment Grant Program Announcement and Guidelines (NSF 90-146). The aquisition of this equipment is expected to improve the efficiency of the research being conducted, results of which are expected to be utilized in engineering design of waste management processes and systems.

该奖项为土木工程系环境扫描电子显微镜采购六硼化镧电子源提供支持。 该源预计将在黑色金属生物腐蚀研究、固定污染物稳定性控制、潮湿岩盐蠕变研究（包括计划用于废物储存的地下地质层）和放射性胶体修复研究中提高图像的分辨率和对比度。 该提案是根据出版物《研究设备资助计划公告和指南》（NSF 90-146）中列出的条件提交的。 购买该设备预计将提高正在进行的研究的效率，其结果预计将用于废物管理过程和系统的工程设计。
