Photophysics and photochemistry of uranyl ions in aqueous solutions: Refining of quantitative characteristics
Kinetics and Catalysis(2016)
摘要
The photochemistry and photophysics of aqueous solutions of uranyl nitrate have been investigated by nanosecond laser photolysis with excitation at 266 and 355 nm and by time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The quantum yield has been determined for (UO 2 2+ )* formation under excitation with λ = 266 and 355 nm light (φ = 0.35). The quantum yield of uranyl luminescence under the same conditions is 1 × 10 –2 and 1.2 × 10 –3 , respectively, while the quantum yield of luminescence in the solid state is unity, irrespective of the excitation wavelength. The decay of (UO 2 2+ )* in the presence of ethanol is biexponential. The rate constants of this process at pH 3.4 are k 1 = (2.7 ± 0.2) × 10 7 L mol –1 s –1 and k 2 = (5.4 ± 0.2) × 10 6 L mol –1 s –1 . This biexponential behavior is explained by the existence of different complex uranyl ion species in the solution. The addition of colloidal TiO 2 to the solution exerts no effect on the quantum yield of (UO 2 2+ )* formation or on the rate of the reaction between (UO 2 2+ )* and ethanol. The results of this study have been compared with data available from the literature.
