摘要
Radiolysis and hydrolysis of tributylphosphate (TBP) in n-paraffin diluent were investigated under conditions simulating several parameters of the THOREX flowsheet for reprocessing thorium containing spent nuclear fuel. The solvent (30 vol% TBP-n-paraffin) was equilibrated with 0. 25 to 3 molar nitric acid, and the organic phase was inspected by gas chromatography. As an acid hydrolysis product, only di-n-butylphosphoric acid (HDBP) was detected in the organic phase. It is proposed to denominate TBP degradation product yields according to their origin, hydrolysis or radiolysis (G value), or just by a concentration value in case of mixed origin, valid for the experimental conditions.
