Dissolution of UO2 in the N2O4-H2O system

Radiochemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The kinetics of the UO2 dissolution in the N2O4-H2O system was studied. At 25°C, the process is kinetically controlled, whereas at 55°C the process occurs initially under kinetic control (3 min) and then under diffusion-kinetic control. At 80°C, the process occurs exclusively under diffusion-kinetic control. The apparent activation energy was estimated at ∼39 kJ mol−1.
