Speciation of Zr(IV) radionuclides in solutions

Radiochemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The speciation of Zr(IV) radionuclides at their concentration of ∼10−13 M in the solution was studied. The pH ranges where Zr(IV) exists as ions or as pseudocolloids were determined. The Zr4+ hydrolysis yields Zr(OH)3+ and Zr(OH) 2+2 complexes. Their stability constants were calculated. At [Zr(IV)] > 1 × 10−5 M, binuclear hydroxo complexes Zr2(OH) x z+ are formed.
