PHASE EQUILIBRIUM STUDIES FOR THE QUATERNARY SYSTEM URANYL NITRATE – ALUMINUM NITRATE – NITRIC ACID – WATER

Abstract

The quaternary system UO2(NO3)2−Al(NO3)3−HNO3−H2O) was studied in the temperature range 0–20 °C, and the concentration range of 0–1.5 M Al(NO3)3 and 0–10 N HNO3. From the data, phase diagrams were prepared. No phase separation was evident at 30 °C and above, for the concentrations studied.
