(NPPs) during NPP operation, fuel reprocessing, and decommissioning of nuclear reactors …

ABSTRACT Monazite (Ln3+PO4) and related solid solutions are a well-known source of rare
earth elements on earth. They may also accommodate large amounts of thorium and …

Several La1− xGdxPO4 solid solutions were prepared in the monazite-or rhabdophane-type
structures for various x values using three methods of preparation (direct evaporation …

In the field of the immobilisation of high-activity-level and long-life radwaste (HAVL) for a
deep underground repository, several phosphate matrices were already proposed as good …

This paper focuses on major phosphate-based ceramic materials relevant for the
immobilisation of Pu, minor actinides, fission and activation products. Key points addressed …

Phosphate ceramics (britholites, monazite/brabantite solid solutions, thorium phosphate
diphosphate, ie β-TPD, and associated β-TPD/monazite composites) are often considered …

To underline the potential links between the crystallization state and the microstructure of
powdered cerium–neodymium oxides and their chemical durability, several CeIV1–x NdIII x …

The dissolution of Th1–x Ce x O2 solid solutions samples prepared by thermal conversion of
oxalate precursors was studied by varying independently several parameters (such as …

The dissolution of Ce1–x Ln x O2–x/2 solid solutions was undertaken in various acid media
