Synthesis of amorphous KAlSi3O8 for cesium radionuclide immobilization into solid matrices using spark plasma sintering technique
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract An effective sorption material for cesium radionuclides immobilization in highly safe and reliable solid-state matrices was proposed. Prepared aluminosilicate (КAlSi3O8) adsorbent had amorphous mesoporous structure and Cs+ ions sorption capacity of ∼3.7 mmol/g. The physical-chemical characteristics of (Cs, К)AlSi3O8 sample saturated with Cs + ions were studied using XRD, FT-IR, SEM-EDX, and DTA-TG methods. Firstly, solid-state aluminosilicate matrices were obtained using spark plasma sintering (SPS) technology with high values of relative density (up to 99.9%), compressive strength (31.3–79.2 MPa), and Vickers microhardness (0.9–5.3 GPa). The sample obtained at 1000 °C had a low value of Cs+ leaching from matrices (RCs within the range of 10-7 g cm-2·day-1) and cesium diffusion coefficient (De 9.07 × 10-14 cm2/s). It was shown that prepared aluminosilicate cesium matrices comply with regulatory requirements of GOST R 50926-96 and ANSI/ANS 16.1.
