Times Cited Count：4 Percentile：7.29(Electrochemistry)The electrochemical properties of curium in a LiCl-KCl eutectic melt were studied in the temperature range of 718-823 K. A small electrochemical cell used in this study was designed for the electrochemical measurement with a small amount (1-20 mg) of the highly radioactive minor actinides contained in molten salts achieved in a hot cell. Our data of apparent standard potentials of a Cm
/Cm couple are reasonably in agreement with Osipenko's data (2011) and are lower than Martinot's data (1975). The validity of our data and the reported apparent standard potentials were discussed.

Times Cited Count：8 Percentile：19.34(Electrochemistry)The molten state of simulated high-level waste glass and the behavior of ruthenium element in the melt were investigated by using synchrotron radiation based X-ray imaging technique. Melting, generating and moving of bubbles, condensation and sedimentation of ruthenium element were observed dynamically in continuous 12-bit gray-scale images from the CCD camera. X-ray intensity was obtained easily by digitizing gray-scale values in the image. The existence of ruthenium element is emphasized as a black color in the CCD image at X-ray energy higher than the Ru K-absorption edge. Position sensitive imaging X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurement was also performed to clarify the chemical state of ruthenium element in the melt.

(110)substrate by a pulsed laser deposition technique. In situ X-ray diffraction measurements clarified the drastic structural changes of the LiTiOfilm upon soaking in the electrolyte and during the first intercalation and deintercalation processes. The surfaceregion of LiTiO had a different structure from the bulk during electrochemical cycling and could cause the nanosizedLiTiO electrodes to have high capacities and poor stabilities.

Times Cited Count：7 Percentile：15.42(Electrochemistry)Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membranes with conical and cylindrical nanopores were prepared in a controlled manner by the ion-track technique, which involved heavy ion beam irradiation and the subsequent alkaline etching. Etching behavior mainly depended on energy deposition of ion beams, and thus its depth distribution, estimated by theoretical simulation, was successfully applied to control the shapes and diameters of the etched pores. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrolytic conductometry then gave an insight into critical experimental parameters. Interestingly, applying a higher voltage to the conductometry cell promoted track etching up to breakthrough probably because electrophoretic migration of dissolved products occurred out of each pore.

as the oxide ion scavenger in order to avoid the formation of such oxychlorides as MO
, the effect of oxide ion concentration was well controlled on the distribution coefficients of Am and Ce. The separation factor between Am and Ce was then obtained to be about 100. By comparing the present value with the other experimental and the predicted ones, it was confirmed that the Ga system was more selective than the Bi and Cd system.

In this study, the results of thermodynamic calculations for the phosphate conversion reactions were examined by the basic experiments. The chlorides of rare earth elements (REE) turned out to be converted into phosphates easily. Furthermore, as the additive for the phosphate conversion reaction, high temperature behavior of lithium phosphate was evaluated to elucidate the thermodynamic property.

These redox potentials were more negative than those in the LiCl-KCl eutectic but positive comparing to those in the NaCl-CsCl eutectic. This relation would be correlated with the averaged alkali cation radius.

Times Cited Count：4 Percentile：10.27(Electrochemistry)We analyzed the mechanism of mixed conduction due to electrons and oxygen ions in (LaSr)MnO and (BaSr)(CoFe)O through the Rietveld refinement and maximum entropy method analyses of neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffractions. It was found that Mn-O plane in (LaSr)MnO has a strong, isotropic covalent bond that enables conduction of electrons. The (Co, Fe)-O2 plane with a covalent bond and a low concentration of oxygen vacancies in (BaSr)(CoFe)O can also conduct electrons. On the other hand, the (Ba, Sr)-O1 plane in (BaSr)(CoFe)O, which has a high concentration of oxygen vacancies, large isotropic displacement parameter, and a strong ionic bond, is responsible for the diffusion of oxygen ions.

Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.00(Electrochemistry)The simulation code for the pyrochemical processing of spent nuclear fuels was developed to analyze experimental data, to predict experimental results, and to propose adequate conditions and processes. The Simulation code for Pyrochemical Reprocessing (SPR) is based on calculations of chemical equilibrium and electrochemical reactions. The code also includes the calculations of the current-potential distribution between the electrodes. Some calculations were made to simulate the experimental results on the electro-codeposition process of UO
and PuO. The phenomena of the redox reactions between Pu and Pu ions and those between Fe and Fe
ions were theoretically analyzed; these redox reactions cause the low current efficiency in the electro-codeposition process. The calculated current-potential distribution around the cathode corresponds to the observed distribution of the oxide deposited on the cathode.

Times Cited Count：12 Percentile：26.10(Electrochemistry)Proton exchange membranes for use in fuel cells were prepared our original ion-track technology, which involves (1) the swift heavy ion irradiation of polyvinylidene fluoride films and subsequent chemical etching to obtain cylindrical pores, and (2) the filling of proton-conducting polymer chains into the etched pores by 
-ray-induced graft polymerization. We found that the membranes possessed one-dimensional straight proton conducting pathways parallel to the ion-beam incident axis. Such restricted structures probably led to less water uptake and lower methanol permeability compared to a commercially-available Nafion membrane.

Transformation of voltammograms on addition of oxide ions (LiO) to the melt LiCl-KCl-UCl was studied. Similar changes of voltammetric curves were observed during a long contact of oxide materials with LiCl-KCl-UCl molten system due to appearance of oxide ions in the melt resulting from oxide materials corrosion.

FeO
, NaFeO, and NaFeO from room temperature up to 723 K in a state of powder under an inert atmosphere. The comparison of the spectra showed good applicability of Raman spectroscopy to the in situ identification between these sodium iron double oxides. On the basis of this result, we have investigated corrosion reaction on surface of steel with NaO powder using in situ Raman spectroscopy. The obtained spectra showed corrosion reaction occurs under 723 K and the corrosion product was identified as Na5FeO4. A reaction mechanism for the corrosion based on the above results was presented that the system of Fe + Na2O2 produces corrosive melt under 723 K so that it spreads over the surface and the corrosion products distribute homogeneously on the surface. The corrosion reaction in homogeneous powder mixture of Fe and NaO has also been investigated using Raman spectroscopy with the help of XRD and DTA methods. The corrosion products were identified as the double oxides whose compositions coorespond to the stoichiometric ratio of Na to Fe in the starting materials, while the products from the surface reaction of steel with NaO tend to have a spcified composition of NaFeO
. The differnce can reasonably be explained using the mechanism presented above. It was found from the DTA measurements that NaO has particularly strong corrosivity for iron, in contrast to NaO and NaOH.

Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.00(Electrochemistry)Raman spectra have been obtained for peroxide ion in Na
up to 950 K and in molten NaOH up to 900 K. Drastic changes were observed in the spectra around 780 K, which was able to be attributed to the phase transition between beta and alfa forms. The spectra of peroxide ions in molten NaOH was obtained at 610 K just above the eutectic point and the peak can be observed up to 900 K for the melt containing 20 mol% Na2O. This shows evidently that peroxide ions is able to be present in molten NaOH. An analysis of the peak position suggests the analogous local structure around peroxide ions with that in the crystal.
