Research Abstract |
Thermodynamic stability and coordination structure of lanthanides (Ln) and actinides (An) complexes in various molten chloride mixtures were investigated by using electrochemical transient techniques and absorption spectrophotometry, respectively. It was found that the strength of Coulombic interaction between solvent cations and the Ln and An complexes is the basic factor to control the solvation effect of molten salt media on the thermodynamic stability of the complexes. It is useful information on the estimation on the thermodynamic stability of Ln depending on the composition of molten chlorides and mutual separation of Ln and An.
