Ceramic Mineral Waste-Forms for Nuclear Waste Immobilization
materials Review Ceramic Mineral Waste-Forms for Nuclear Waste Immobilization Albina I. Orlova 1 and Michael I. Ojovan 2,3,* 1 Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, 23 Gagarina av., 603950 Nizhny Novgorod, Russian Federation 2 Department of Radiochemistry, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow 119991, Russia 3 Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, Exhibition Road, London SW7 2AZ, UK * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 31 May 2019; Accepted: 12 August 2019; Published: 19 August 2019 Abstract: Crystalline ceramics are intensively investigated as effective materials in various nuclear energy applications, such as inert matrix and accident tolerant fuels and nuclear waste immobilization. This paper presents an analysis of the current status of work in this field of material sciences. We have considered inorganic materials characterized by different structures, including simple oxides with fluorite structure, complex oxides (pyrochlore, murataite, zirconolite, perovskite, hollandite, garnet, crichtonite, freudenbergite, and P-pollucite), simple silicates (zircon/thorite/coffinite, titanite (sphen), britholite), framework silicates (zeolite, pollucite, nepheline /leucite, sodalite, cancrinite, micas structures), phosphates (monazite, xenotime, apatite, kosnarite (NZP), langbeinite, thorium phosphate diphosphate, struvite, meta-ankoleite), and aluminates with a magnetoplumbite structure. These materials can contain in their composition various cations in different combinations and ratios: Li–Cs, Tl, Ag, Be–Ba, Pb, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Cd, B, Al, Fe, Ga, Sc, Cr, V, Sb, Nb, Ta, La, Ce, rare-earth elements (REEs), Si, Ti, Zr, Hf, Sn, Bi, Nb, Th, U, Np, Pu, Am and Cm. They can be prepared in the form of powders, including nano-powders, as well as in form of monolith (bulk) ceramics. -

Ansrucr Kosnarite, ideally KZrr(PO)r, has been identified as part of a late-stage,secondary phosphate mineral assemblagefrom the Mount Mica pegmatite at Paris, and from the Black Mountain pegmatite, Rumford, Oxford County, Maine. Kosnarite from Mount Mica occurs as pseudocubicrhombohedral crystals, as much as 0.9 mm in maximum dimension,that displaythe dominant { 102}form. Color rangesfrom pale blue to blue-greento nearly colorless.The mineral has a white streak, is transparent, has a vitreous luster,and is nonfluorescentin ultraviolet light. It has a hardnessof4.5, is brittle with a conchoidal fracture, and has perfect { 102} cleavage.Measured and calculated densitiesare D^3.194(2) and D" 3.206.Optically, this mineral is characterizedas uniaxial (+), with refractiveindices of N.: 1.656(2)and N. :1.682(2) and is nonpleochroic. Twinning was not observed. The mineral is hexagonal(rhombohedral), space group R3c with a : 8.687(2),c : 23.871(l) A,, v : 1560.4(8)fri, 7 :6.
