摘要: The radiation stability of N,N-di-dodecyl-N′,N′-di-octyl-3-oxapentane-1,5-diamide (D3DODGA) was studied by γ-irradiation the solvent up to a absorbed dose 1,000 kGy. effect on radiolytic degradation D3DODGA assessed measuring distribution ratio Am(III) (DAm(III)) as well third phase formation in irradiated D3DODGA-n-dodecane solution. DAm(III) solution decreased with increase dose. critical aqueous concentration Nd(III) above which forms, increased However, limiting organic remained at ~25 mM irrespective Recovery from radiolytically degraded showed that back extraction quantitative few contacts using dilute nitric acid. Our studies clearly indicated n-dodecane is marginal even kGy, and therefore potential candidate for minor actinide partitioning.
