In this route, a mixed solution containing Al-nitrate, Ca-nitrate, Ba-nitrate, zirconyl nitrate and titanyl nitrate in the molar proportion required for synroc-B is added to dilute ammonia solution to precipitate these cations in the form of their hydroxides at room temperature by maintaining pH approximate to 10.5 during precipitation. Formation of a major fluorite phase with minor amounts of anatase, rutile and hollandite phases is observed in the powder obtained after calcination in air at 750 degrees C. Multiphase crystalline synroc-B matrix containing hollandite, perovskite, zirconolite, and rutile phases is obtained after sintering the heat treated powder in the form of pellets at 1230 degrees C for 4h in air. Similarly, pure synroc-C phases with 14 and 20% simulated waste loadings were synthesized following the same synthesis protocol. These pre-treated powders with a high surface area of similar to 25 m(2) g(-1) gave sintered ceramics having density of similar to 90% for 14 and 20% waste loadings. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

The structure of NZP ceramics, prepared using the HIP route, has been compared with conventionally sintered NZP using a combination of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and (P-31 and Na-23) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy techniques. It is observed that NZP with no waste loading is aggressive toward the steel HIP -can during hot isostatic compaction and significant fraction of cations from the steel enter the ceramic material. Waste loaded NZP samples (10 wt% simulated FBR waste) show significantly low can -interaction and primary NZP phase is evident in this material. Upon exposure of can -interacted and waste loaded NZP to boiling water and steam, P-31 NMR does not detect any major modifications in the network structure. However, the Na-23 NMR spectra indicate migration of Na+ ions from the surface and possible re -crystallization. This is corroborated by Small -Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) data and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) measurements carried out on these samples.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.447</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
