09/2006 | Radiochimica Acta, Oldenbourg WissenschaftsverlagThe aim of this study is to explain how the kaolinite-based clay minerals adsorb hexavalent uranium (uranyl ion), and to model uranyl adsorption based on inner-sphere surface complexation with the kaolinite edge hydroxyl sites and outer-sphere complexation with the permanent charge sites...

12/2006 | Radiochimica Acta, Oldenbourg WissenschaftsverlagThe complex formation of uranium(VI) with salicylhydroxamic,
benzohydroxamic, and benzoic acid in 0.1 M NaClO4 was studied by UV-vis spectroscopy at pH 3 and 4...
