abstract = {N-donor ligands are currently discussed as promising
extractants in the hydrometallurgical separation of
trivalent actinides (An(III)) from lanthanides (Ln(III)) in
the treatment of used nuclear fuel. Due to their high
selectivity for An(III) under process-relevant conditions,
the separation from the chemically similar Ln(III) can be
achieved with a low number of process steps (e.g.,
extraction/scrubbing/stripping stages).
6,6’-Bis(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-benzo[1,2,4]triazin-3-yl)[2,2’]bipyridine
(CyMe4BTBP) and
2,9-bis(1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-1,10-phenantroline (CyMe4BTPhen)
are prominent members, therefore their radiolytic stability
against gamma radiolysis was studied in 1-octanol solution
with and without contact to HNO3 solution. The radiolysis
products were identified using high-resolution mass
spectrometry. Semi-quantitative analyses and pulsed electron
radiolysis were used to study the radiolysis mechanism for
both ligands. The changing solvent extraction properties as
a function of absorbed dose were studied as well.
Alpha-hydroxyoctyl radical addition products were identified
as the predominant radiolysis products. The results of this
collaborative study will be presented and discussed.[1][1]
