Characterization of alloy particles extracted from spent nuclear fuel
We characterized, for the first time, submicro- and nanosized fission product-alloy particles that were
extracted nondestructively from spent nuclear fuel, in terms of noble metal (Mo–Ru–Tc–Rh–Pd–Te) composition,
atomic level homogeneity and lattice parameters. The evidences obtained in this work contribute
to an improved understanding of the redox chemistry of radionuclides in nuclear waste repository
environments and, in particular, of the catalytic properties of these unique metal alloy particles.
