Abstract

Solid forms immobilizing nuclides were prepared from Cs-mordenite and Sr-A zeolite by calcination at 1,200°C for 1 h. Cesium and strontium were fixed in the crystal phases of pollucite (CsAlSi₂O₆) and Sr-feldspar (SrAl₂Si₂O₈), respectively. The leachability of Cs and Sr was rather high in 0.1 M HNO₃ leachant, while the leached percentage was lowered in 0.1 M NaOH, 0.1 M NaCl and deionized water. The recrystallized phases formed on the surface after leaching in 0.1 M NaOH resulted in the lowering of the leachability of Cs and Sr. The thermal conductivities (k) of solid forms of Cs-MOR, Sr-A, (Cs,Sr)-A and Al-matrix (calcined Cs-mordenite dispersed in Al metal matrix) were determined to be 0.83-1.00, 0.55-0.64, 0.83-1.01 and 47 W/(m·K), respectively. The central temperature of solid forms with the same diameter was in the order of Sr-A > Cs-MOR > Al-matrix.
