This article highlights current paradigms and challenges in modeling of lanthanides and
actinides solvent extraction by lipophilic extractants. Within the multiscale approach …

In this paper, we propose a new nonpolarizable force field for describing the Ln3+ (Ln=
lanthanide) series based on a 12-6-4 Lennard-Jones potential. The development of the …

A novel self-assembly process for simultaneous extraction and solidification of uranium (VI)
from H 2 SO 4 leaching liquor was pioneered using malonamide-based …

Phase modifiers are often added to solvent extraction processes to avoid the third-phase
formation. While this important issue was attributed to sticky interactions between reverse …

A more environmentally friendly solvent extraction process was formulated for uranium
extraction using diluent-free extractants based on trialkylammonium compounds. The effect …

Extraction mechanisms of two bifunctional extractants which differ only by the grafting of an
alkyl chain between their two functions were investigated at molecular and supramolecular …

Abstract Two extractants, N, N′-((octylazanediyl) bis (ethane-2, 1-diyl)) dioctanamide (LI)
and N, N′-((octylazanediyl) bis (ethane-2, 1-diyl)) di-2-methylheptanamide (LII), hav e been …

This work describes the reaction of the potentially tetradentate Schiff-base ligand N-(2-
pyridylmethy)-3-methoxysalicylaldimine (HL) with UO 2 (O 2 CMe) 2· 2H 2 O and UO 2 (NO …

This study presents a comprehensive investigation of the aggregation behavior of a
malonamide extractant molecule (N, N′-dimethyl, N, N′-dioctylhexylethoxymalonamide …

The nanoscale organization of some classes of ionic liquids is responsible for their singular
properties. In this paper, we use polarizable molecular dynamics simulations and small …
