In order to study the stability of perovskite-type SrTiO3 used for immobilizing Y3+, Sr (NO3)2, TiO2 and Y2O3 are used as starting materials. The synthesized Y2O3-doped SrTiO3 can be generally represented as Sr1-1.5xYxTiO3 (0≤ x≤0.12) with the high temperature solid reaction. The phases, structures and microcosmic shapes of synthetic condensates are characterized by the X-ray diffraction, Raman and scanning electron microscopy, and long-term chemical stability is studied at 90 ℃. The results indicate that the phases of compounds change from perovskite to pyrocholre phase when the value of x is more than 0.08. The leaching rates of Sr2+ and Y3+ in waste form increase with the increase of immersion time. The highest leaching concentrations of Sr2+ and Y3+ for 42-day immersion are no more than 0.004 and 0.02 μg·mL-1, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
