Study on solubility of transuranium elements, II

Moriyama, Hirotake*

In support of the safety assessment of geologic disposal of high levcl radioactive wastes, the solubility of transuranium elements was studied. The solubility of PuO$$_{2}$$$$cdot$$xH$$_{2}$$O was measured undcr a reducing condition, and the solubility product K$$^{0}_{sp}$$ and the stability constant $$beta$$$$_{4}$$ of Pu(OH)$$_{4}$$ were obtained. The obtained K$$^{0}_{sp}$$ value was found to be much smaller than that predicted by Rai et al. from its dependence on ionic radius. Also, the solubility of PuO$$_{3}$$3 $$cdot$$ xH$$_{2}$$O was measured under an oxidizing condition and the solubility product K$$^{0}_{sp}$$ was obtained. In the analysis of hydrolysis constants of actinide ions, it was found that the systematic trend of the hydrolysis constants was well explained by the hard sphere model considering the effective charges of actinide ions.
