Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Chemistry, Analytical)Anhydrous plutonium trichloride (PuCl
) was synthesized by a solid-state reaction of plutonium nitride with cadmium chloride. The lattice constants of hexagonal PuCl
were refined from its powder X-ray diffraction pattern to be a = 0.7394
0.0006 nm and c = 0.4244
0.0006 nm, which are close to the reported values. Using the synthesized PuCl
sample, electrochemical behavior of plutonium in NaCl-2CsCl melt at 823-923 K was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and open-circuit chronopotentiometry after polarization. The results show that Pu
ions are reduced to Pu metal by single-step mechanism in the NaCl-2CsCl melt. The apparent standard potentials of Pu

ions were determined using the previously reported Gibbs free energy of formation for PuCl
in the supercooled liquid state.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Chemistry, Analytical)The feasibility of using commercially available polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (PVPP) as a pretreatment for mass spectrometry to separate actinides was investigated. Uranium, thorium, and plutonium were used as actinides in the study. Adsorption data for An(IV) and An(VI) were obtained by adsorption experiments in nitric acid. In addition, An(III)/An(IV)/An(VI) mutual separation was successfully performed by a column separation method using PVPP. Furthermore, the elution efficiency of U(VI) was improved by the introduction of carbonate ions. This method may be applicable as a mutual separation for actinide mass spectrometry.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Chemistry, Analytical)A series of in-house PdI
standards appropriate for AMS was prepared by quantitatively mixing the
I/
I isotope standard solution and
I solution. The dominant interferences from
Pd
were successfully suppressed by adjusting the electrostatic cylindrical analyser, etc., to select the ion beams finely. As a result, the
I/
I atom ratios of PdI
prepared from the seawater and dolomite samples agreed with those prepared as AgI, respectively. The pretreatment time for the new method was shortened by 33% compared to the conventional method. This study demonstrated a new approach to
I analysis in AMS that departs from conventional methods.

Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:61.39(Chemistry, Analytical)In this study, the radiocarbon isotope ratio, 
C, was used to identify the sources of suspended sediment and
Cs discharged into rivers after the Fukushima nuclear accident. Suspended sediments were collected during the flood event and under normal water conditions to determine
Cs concentrations, 
C, and stable carbon isotope ratios. The results indicated that the contribution of forest surface soil runoff increased during the flood peak. Furthermore, the distribution of
Cs deposition in the watershed was reflected in temporal changes in suspended
Cs concentration during the flood event. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of both
Cs and carbon dynamics.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Chemistry, Analytical)In this study, the solvent extraction behavior of tin (Sn), specifically
Sn, from high-level radioactive waste was evaluated using six different extractants in a HNO
system. Among the tested extractants, N,N-Didodecyl-2-hydroxyacetoamide (HAA) exhibited higher efficiency, still not sufficient for industrial implementation. In systems where HCl was added to HNO
, both tributyl phosphate (TBP) and N,N,N,N'-tetra-2-ethylhexyl diglycolamide (TEHDGA) achieved D
values greater than 1 at
1 M HCl. However, due to practical challenges in industrial applications, HAA extraction in HNO
systems, particularly at low Sn concentrations (0.0008 M), may provide a more effective solution for Sn recovery.

During the processes, Se remained in the residual aqueous solutions, as all extractants showed distributionratios

1 with
-phenylenediamine in dilute nitric acid (
2 M HNO
), octanol as the organic phase, and concentrated nitric acid (8 M HNO
) for back extraction, suggesting a potential new single separation process and recovery of Se.
