The removal of radio-elements, notably uranium, from wastewaters is crucial for public
health and environmental remediation. To this end, succinyl-β-cyclodextrin (SβCD) is grafted …

Particle analysis is one of the key-techniques used in the field of nuclear safeguards.
Beyond traditional uranium isotopy measurement, other methodologies are implemented to …

Within the development of future nuclear reactors, wet chemistry routes have been
investigated for the fabrication of advanced oxide fuels. In this frame, a multiparametric study …

The development of nuclear energy requires the consumption of large amounts of uranium
resources, and the uranium in seawater is very abundant. Therefore, it is very important to …

Uranium–cerium oxide solid solutions, U1− xCexO2+ δ· nH2O, were prepared through
hydrothermal conversion of mixed U (IV)–Ce (III) oxalate precursors, cerium being used as a …

A simple wet chemistry route towards micrometric spherical UO2 particles was designed
through the conversion of uranium (IV) aspartate under mild hydrothermal conditions (T …

We report on the crystallite growth of nanometric NpO2 and UO2 powders. The AnO2
nanoparticles (An= U and Np) were synthesized by hydrothermal decomposition of the …

The behavior of ThO 2 microspheres was investigated in situ at high temperature by electron
microscopy, including HR-TEM and ESEM. The observation of isolated particles first allowed …

The preparation of dense U 1− x Ce x O 2 mixed dioxides pellets was achieved from the
initial precipitation of highly reactive precursors. In a first step, a wet chemistry route, based …

We report a facile method to synthesize monodisperse, uniform and size-controllable
thorium dioxide nanoparticles via a hydrothermal precursor synthesis and a subsequent …
