Uranium(III) in aqueous solutions: Preparation, properties, synthesis of solid compounds

  • Published:
Radiochemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

Published data on the preparation procedures, stability, and complexation of U(III) in aqueous solutions are summarized and correlated. Reactions with inorganic and organic free radicals studied by the flash radiolysis method, the spectroscopic properties, the extraction and ion-exchange behavior of U(III), and methods for isolation of solid U(III) compounds from aqueous solutions are discussed.
