Vaporization behaviour of Pu-Cd intermetallic compounds

Nakajima, Kunihisa ; Nakazono, Yoshihisa; Arai, Yasuo

A pyrochemical process for the metallurgical treatment of the spent nuclear fuels contains the Cd-distillation step, where Pu is recovered as a residue. For understanding this Cd-ditillation behavior the samples of PuCd $_{2}$ +PuCd $_{4}$ and PuCd $_{4}$ +PuCd $_{6}$ were prepared and Knudsen-cell mass-spectrometric measurements were carried out to determine the vapour pressures of Cd(g) over these samples. Further,the thermodynamic quantities of PuCd $_{2}$ and PuCd $_{4}$ were evaluated from these vapour pressures.
