Abstract
Mixtures of HZr2(PO4)3 with MINO3 (MI=Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs) or MII(NO3)2 (MII=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) were thermally treated at 973K, in order to investigate the immobilization of MI or MII. Leaching tests for MIZr2(PO4)3 and MIIZr4(PO4)6 were carried out at 433K for 24 hours in 1mol·dm-3-HCl. The leaching rate decreased with an increase of ionic radius of MI or MII, except for the case of Rb and Cs in MIZr2(PO4)3.
