Table 9.

Concentration ratio Zr/Ti for the 18-14, 18-15, and 18-13-1 alloys derived from the AES results obtained from the uppermost layer (1) and the near-surface layer (2), before and after exposure to Hanks’ solution for 604.8 ks; the last column provides nominal Zr/Ti concentration ratio values for each alloy.

Alloy Before Exposure After Exposure Nominal Value
Zr/Ti (1) Zr/Ti (2) Zr/Ti (1) Zr/Ti (2)
18-14 0.20 0.35 0.83 0.31 0.26
18-15 0.71 0.31 2.00 0.35 0.27
18-13-1 0.18 0.31 0.67 0.28 0.26
