Times Cited Count:10 Percentile:55.76(Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear)Electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical has been used to investigate the behaviour of Neptunium (VI) in concentration 1-8 M HNO solutions. The electrochemical reactions of Np(VI) ions were found to occur quasi-reversibly. The formal redox potentials (E
) for Np(VI)/Np(V) couples were determined to be +0.906, +0.908, +0.909, +0.902, +0.896, +0.895, +0.888, and +0.884 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) for Np(VI) ions in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 M HNO
solutions, respectively. The reduction processes of Np(VI) ions were followed spectroelectrochemically by using an optical transparent thin layer electrode cell. It was found that the absorption spectra measured at the applied potentials from +1.10 to +0.60 V versus Ag/AgCl reference electrode redox couple for Np(VI) in HNO
solution have clear isosbestic points. These results indicate that the reduction product of Np(VI) is Np(V), which is considerably stable in HNO
solution.

, the hydrogen-bonding patterns were compared between the native and a 'triple-mutant' variant where three residues were changed so that they are identical to those in a mesophilic rubredoxin. In the present study, some minor changes were found between the wild-type and mutant proteins in the hydrogen-bonding patterns of the Trp3/Tyr3 region. The H/D-exchange ratios in the protein were also studied. The results suggest that the backbone amide bonds near the four Cys residues of the FeS
redox center are most resistant to H/D exchange. In addition, the 1.6
resolution of the present neutron structure determination has revealed a more detailed picture than previously available of some portions of the water structure, including ordered and disordered O-D bonds.

= 18.6 % and
= 21.7 %. Several orientations of the O-D bonds of side chains, whose assignments from X-ray data were previously ambiguous, were clearly visible in the neutron structure. While most backbone N-H bonds had undergone some degree of H/D exchange throughout the molecule, five H atom positions still had distinctly negative (H) peaks. The neutron Fourier maps clearly showed the details of an extensive set of H bonds involving the ND
terminus that may contribute to the unusual thermostability of this molecule.

To study the release mechanism of iodine from the dissolver solution in the nuclear fuel reprocessing plants to the atmosphere at criticality accidents, the characteristics of redox of iodine species in various solutions must be examined. In the present work, the effect of -ray irradiation on the redox reaction was examined in the nitric acid solution of 1M and 3M. Without irradiation, most of iodine in 1M nitric acid solutions were exist in the form of I
. In 3M nitric acid solutions, iodine was oxidized to I
. When the solutions were irradiated by
-ray with exposure of more than 4C/kg, I
was disappeared regardless of nitric acid concentration. At exposure of 120C/kg, iodine was oxidized to IO
. At exposure of 4800C/kg, iodine was exist in the form of IO
in 1M nitric acid solution. On the other hand, iodine in 3M nitric acid solution was reduced to I
at the same exposure. In the irradiated solution, nitrous acid was found, which would be produced from nitric acid by
-ray irradiation.

This study is investigation about stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of zirconium in nuclear fuel reprocessing. Chapter 1 is described background. Chapter 2 is explained experimental apparates. Chapter 3 is described the increased oxidization potential on the heat-transfer surface and suggested the initiation of SCC on a boiling heat-transfer surface. Chapter 4 is described that the SCC susceptibility increased with increasing nitric acid concentration and solution temperature on notched specimen by SSRT. In addition, the SCC susceptibility effected by the crystal anisotropy by the hot rolling direction and increased on a parallel face to the rolling direction. Chapter 5 is described that the SCC susceptibility increased in HAZ/base metal boundary in order to the preferential orientation of cleavage plane (0002). Chapter 6 is described that the increased oxidization potential on the heat-transfer surface is attributed to the reduction of nitrous acid concentration by the thermal decomposition on the surface and the removal of the decomposition product from solution by boiling bubbles.

A corrosion of a stainless steel in nitric acid solution containing Np has been studied. Using SUS304L stainless steel, corrosion tests in boiling neptunium nitrate solution were conducted under immersion and heat-transfer condition. By the weight loss measurement of stainless steel and the quantitative analysis of metallic ions dissolved in solution, the corrosion rates were obtained. The surface morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The acceleration mechanism was investigated by electrochemistry and spectrophotometry. The corrosion rate was accelerated by addition of neptunium in nitric acid. Preferential intergranular corrosion was observed. The corrosion was enhanced under heat-transfer condition compared to immersion condition. In polarization measurements, the cathodic over-voltage was decreased; the cathodic current was increased by addition of Np. Spectrophotometric measurements showed that Np(V) oxidized to Np(VI) in boiling nitric acid. The corrosion acceleration mechanism in nitric acid solution containing Np suggested the re-oxidation of Np(V).
