Development Of Fluorapatite As A Waste Form: Progress Report 1-3, Boris E. Burakov

Separations Campaign (TRP)

In the framework of this stage of research we had to carry out synthesis and study of fluorapatite doped with fission product elements including Cs, Sr, noble metals and Zr. During previous reporting period different samples of ceramics based on Sr-fluorapatite have been synthesized. Sample of Cs-Nd-doped ceramic has been recognized as the most interesting for detailed examination by SEM and EMPA methods.
