Am. Fedoseev et al., Synthesis and physicochemical properties of uranyl molybdate complexes of ammonium, potassium, rubidium, and cesium ions, RUSS J IN C, 46(1), 2001, pp. 40-43
The influence of experimental conditions on the compositions and yields of
crystalline phases in the UO2MoO4-M2MoO4-H2O systems (M is an alkali-metal
or ammonium cation) is studied. The compounds of the morphotropic series wi
th the general formula M2UO2(MoO4)(2).H2O, where M = K, Rb, Cs, or NH4, are
synthesized hydrothermally from aqueous solution at 160-180 degreesC. The
compositions and some physicochemical properties of the mixed uranyl molybd
ates are studied in relation to the nature of the outer-sphere cation. The
IR spectra and thermal behavior of the compounds are studied.
