Le choix du bitume comme matrice de conditionnement a été conduit par la prise en considération des nombreux avantages présentés par ce matériau : - excellente adhésivité à de multiples supports, - solubilité négligeable dans l'eau et imperméabilité, plasticité, élasticité, résistance aux chocs, - tenue à l'irradiation satisfaisante, - inertie chimique, - bonne tenue biologique, - matière première abondante, coûts modérés. Il existe cependant quelques inconvénients attachés à cette matrice : inflammabilité des hydrocarbures lourds, mauvais coefficient de transfert de la chaleur, difficulté de la modélisation de son comportement à long terme. 1, record 1, French, - coefficient%20de%20transfert%20de%20chaleur
