Efficient masking of corrosion and fission products such as Ni(ii) and Pd(ii) in the presence of the minor actinide Am(iii) using hydrophilic anionic or cationic bis-triazines

Abstract

Water soluble anionic and cationic bis-triazine ligands are able to suppress (mask) the extraction of corrosion and fission products such as Ni(II) and Pd(II) that are found in PUREX raffinates. Thus it is possible to separate these elements from the minor actinide Am(III). Although some masking agents have previously been developed that retard the extraction of Pd(II), this is the first time a masking agent has been developed for Ni(II).
