Abstract
The present study discusses the incorporation of uranyl ion into Y-zeo lite framework. The UO22+ sorption was measured by neutron activation analyses. The Y-zeolite framework distorts in response to the cations present in the structure. Hence, depending on the amount and the locat ion of the exchanged cations, the features of the X-ray diffraction pa ttern may vary, From the Rietveld analysis of these patterns, the posi tions occupied by the UO22+ cations in the zeolite network were determ ined.
