Description

This paper describes the results of photoreduction of uranyl (UO22+) ion to U4+ in 0.2M HNO3 and ethanol using a 308 nm XeCl excimer laser. The effects of different concentrations of ethanol and the addition of sulfamic acid on the quantum yield for U4+ formation are discussed. (author) 10 refs.; 1 fig.; 3 tabs
