CX-035511: Johns Hopkins University - High-Entropy Glass-Ceramics for Nuclear Waste Immobilization

This Amended Determination follows the approval of additional funding, extended period of performance, new teaming partners, and new project milestones to support the project team's small-scale research and development activities of high-entropy glass-ceramics that could store more nuclear waste by percent weight than industry-standard glasses. Specifically, the project team will (1) continue to synthesize, test, and validate preliminary glass- ceramics to meet performance metrics, (2) apply computational analysis to identify and rank next phase materials, and (3) synthesize, test, and validate next phase glass-ceramic materials for use in final storage prototype.
