Abstract
A kinetic isotope effect in Pu(V) disproportionation in nitric acid so lutions have been observed in a heterogeneous system with phenyloctylp hosphonic acid deposited on hydrophobized silicagel. The isotope separ ation coefficient alpha for Pu-242/Pu-239 isotopes was found to be 1.0 22 at 25-degrees-C. The rate constant of Pu(V) disproportionation in t his heterogeneous system was determined to be 5.0+/-0.6 l2mol-2s-1 at 25-degrees-C, [HNO3] = = 0.87-1.5 mol l-1 and 1:1 phase ratio (10% ext ractant on the support).
