Aggregation behaviour of radiolytically degraded diglycolamide based solvent system
摘要
The 0.1 M TODGA + 0.2 M DOHyA/n-DD phase was irradiated to various absorbed dose levels and the extraction behaviour of nitric acid and Nd(III) in the irradiated organic phases were studied. The organic phase was then subjected to dynamic light scattering studies to understand the aggregation behaviour in the organic phase. The results showed that the polar degradation products formed in the organic phase decreased the aggregation, while the higher homologue of n-DD enhanced aggregation.
