Abstract
In 1-5 M NaOH solutions containing formate ions, Np(V) remains unchang ed for 5 h at 60-90 degrees C. Under the same conditions in the presen ce of palladium salts, metallc palladium is formed, on which Np(IV) hy droxide is precipitated. Platinum salts also act as catalysts in Np(V) reduction with formate. This reaction proceeds in contact with anion exchanger coated with palladium or platinum metal.
