Abstract
Selection of wasteform materials for higher activity nuclear waste containment is considered. Utilization of materials such as glasses, ceramics, glass composite materials and cements is discussed as practiced in different countries. Emphasis is on multiple parameter approach on selecting the wasteform where the durability is not solely the most important characteristic.
