Abstract

ABSTRACTTri-iso-amyl phosphate (TiAP) in dodecane (DD) is emerging as a potent alternative for the extraction of suitable actinides from nitric acid solutions comprising various metal ions. A detailed investigation on the evolution in physicochemical properties upon gamma irradiation of TiAP-DD system has been carried out. Physical properties, such as density, viscosity, phase disengagement time, interfacial tension, etc., were measured for neat as well as irradiated solvent phases. Effect of aqueous phase acidity, which is an important parameter during extraction, on the hydrodynamic properties of the solvent during radiolysis was compared. ATR–FTIR spectroscopy of the irradiated phase was compared to find out the formation of new classes of compounds, if any.
