dc.description.abstractThree wt% each of Cs and Tc were mixed with the standard Synroc precursor and the ceramic was formed by hot-pressing. Attempts were made to incorporate the Tc as either metal or Tc 4+, using different redox conditions in processing. Volatile losses of Tc during calcination were < 0.1% in all cases. Short-term Tc leach rates when the Tc was present as a metal alloy were in the order of 10−4 g/m /d at 90°C with frequently changed water, and decreased with increasing leaching time. The valence of the Tc was monitored by X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the drying and calcination stages of the production. The general viability of Synroc/glass composites for immobilising the Hanford HLW sludges is further demonstrated by using further refinements of additive schemes for the inactive “All-blend” formulation and initial studies using the U-containing “All-blend” waste formulation. © Materials Research Society 1997en_AU
