Preparation and characterization of powellite ceramics Ca1-xLix/2Cex/2MoO4 (0 x 1) for Mo-rich HLW condition
CERAMICS INTERNATIONAL(2020)
摘要
Powellite ceramic represent one candidate to immobilize minor actinides and Mo from reprocessed UMo nuclear fuel. In this work, the Ca1-xLix/2Cex/2MoO4 (0 <= x <= 1) series is prepared via a solid-state reaction using Ce3+ as trivalent minor actinide (Am3+) surrogate, with structure/microstructure characterized by XRD, XPS, HRTEM, and SEM as well. The Ca1-xLix/2Cex/2MoO4 (0 <= x <= 1) compositions crystallize in tetragonal and are isostructural with scheelite. Rietveld refinements show that Ce3+ and Li+ simultaneously enter into the eight-fold coordinated Ca site of powellite crystal. The chemical durability of powellite phases is evaluated by the ASTM C1285-14 product consistency test method B. The leaching behaviours of Ce and Mo are accordance with the interfacial dissolution-reprecipitation mechanism. For all the Ca1-xLix/2Cex/2MoO4 (0 <= x <= 1) ceramics, 7-days NLCe and NLMo are found to be in the order of 10(-3)-10(-5) g.m(-2) and 10(-2)-10(-4) g.m(-2) respectively, which exhibit the great retention of Ce and Mo. Interestingly, the values of 7-days NLCe and NLMo are predominantly controlled by the distortion of MoO4 tetrahedra and disordered arrangements of Ce3+ and Li+. Thus, our initial understanding on the structure and chemical durability relation will provide insight to design new waste forms for the Mo-rich HLW condition.
