摘要:
为研究钆锆烧绿石固化Pu(Ⅳ)的相变化情况及化学稳定性,以Gd2O3,ZrO2为原料,Ce(Ⅳ)作为Pu(Ⅳ)的模拟替代物质,采用冷压热烧结的方法制备出Gd2Zr2-xCexO7(0≤x≤2.0)系列样品.分别在40℃和70℃的合成海水中,对固化体的长期浸出性能进行研究.借助粉末X射线衍射仪对所制备样品的物相信息进行收集,利用等离子体质谱仪对固化体的浸出浓度数据进行分析.研究结果表明:当x≤0.08时,固化体保持为烧绿石相;当x〉0.08时,固化体转变为具有缺陷的萤石型结构相.固化体中Gd3+,Zr4+和Ce4+在合成海水中,随着浸泡时间的延长浸出浓度逐渐上升,70℃下的浸出浓度高于40℃下的浸出浓度.在42 d时,固化体中Gd3+的最大浸出浓度在0.032μg.ml.-1以下,Zr4+的最大浸出浓度在0.003μg.ml.-1以下;Ce4+的最大浸出浓度在0.032μg.ml.-1以下.

Abstract:
In order to investigate phase change and chemical stability of pyrochlore Gd2Zr2O7 used for immobilizing Pu(Ⅳ),tetravalent cerium is used as the simulacrums for plutonium with tetravalence,and Gd2Zr2-xCexO7(0≤x≤2.0) series samples are successfully synthesized by high temperature solid reaction and using Gd2O3 and ZrO2 powders as starting materials.The experiments of long-term chemical stability are conducted in synthetic seawater at 40℃and 70℃separately.The XRD diffractive data and extraction ratio of as-gained samples are collected by the help of X-ray diffraction(XRD) instrument and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The results indicate that the phases of compounds change from pyrochlore to fluorite-type phase when the value of x is more than 0.08. Extraction ratios of Gd3+,Zr4+ and Ce4+ in waste forms increase with the increase of immersion time in synthetic seawater.The extraction ratio of waste form at 70℃is higher than at 40℃.The highest extraction ratios of Gd3+,Zr4+ and Ce4+ for 42 days are no more than 0.032,0.003 and 0.032μgml-1 respectively.
