摘要
Interaction behavior of uranyl nitrate hexahydrate (UNH) and lanthanum nitrate hexahydrate (LaNH) have been investigated on the mixtures in different molar ratios of the two precursors and monitoring the reactions at elevated temperatures with thermoanalytical and X-ray diffraction measurement techniques. During the decomposition of equimolar mixture of LaNH and UNH, formation of lanthanum uranate (U0.5La0.5)O-2, was seen by the temperature of 500 degrees C along with lanthanum oxide (La2O3) and uranium trioxide (UO3). By the temperature of 700 degrees C, the formation of uranium sesquioxide (U3O8) was observed along with (U0.5La0.5)O-2 as end products in uranium rich mixtures. Lanthanum rich composidons decomposed by the temperature of 700 degrees C to give (U(0.5)la(0.5))O-2 and La2O3 as end products. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
