Barium sulfate activated for sorption of strontium by heat treatment with calcium sulfate

DTA studies on the barium sulphate—Calcium sulphate eutectoid mixture

“…Previous studies of the heat-treated BaSO~-CaSO4 mixture suggested the advantage of such substances for the sorption of strontium, ions [1,2]. The most promising eutectoid mixture (actually a nearly eutectoid mixture: 60 mole % BaSQ-40 mole % CaSO~) was more carefully studied and the physico-chemical properties of a newly-formed structure were estimated [3,4].…”
