Zusammenfassung

Die autoradiolytische Zersetzung von Pu(C2O4)2 · 6 H2O wurde gravimetrisch sowie mit spektroskopischen Methoden für die Verbindungen von 238Pu und 239Pu untersucht. Unabhängig von der spezifischen Aktivität zersetzen sich alle untersuchten Oxalate zu PuOCO3, welches das Endprodukt darstellt und sogar nach zehn Jahren Lagerung stabil bleibt.

Summary

The autoradiolytic decomposition of Pu(C2O4)2 · 6H2O has been studied by gravimetric as well as spectroscopic methods for compounds of 238Pu and 239Pu. Irrespective of the specific activity, all oxalates investigated are decomposed to PuOCO3 which appears to be a final product and remains stable even after ten years of storage.
