Description

The solubility of the aerosol 'hot' particles selected at Pripyat region in 1987 in simulated lung fluid (SLF - Gamble's or Pinger's solutions) and 0,1 M HCl was studied statistically. The result showed that leaching of the radionuclides in SLF decrease in line 137Cs > 90Sr >> 239+240Pu ≥ 241Am and in 0,1 M HCl 90Sr >241Am>> 137Cs ≥ 239+240Pu. In dissolution experiments with 0,1 M HCl estimated the soluble portion of the 90Sr and 241Am as 1,4 - 21,0 and 0,9 - 17,0 % correspondingly. In accordance with the size of the 'hot' particles 0,01 - 0,4 % 241Am and 0,02 - 0,3 % 239+240Pu were dissolve in the SLF during seven days
