An SPS-RS Technique for the Fabrication of SrMoO4 Powellite Mineral-like Ceramics for 90Sr Immobilization

“…Mineral-like ceramics based on alkali-earth tungstates [1], molybdates [2][3][4], niobates [5], vanadates [6,7], etc., are actively studied as promising materials for the immobilization of radioactive wastes (RAW) in the form of solid matrixes for long-term storage. One of the best examples of these is the molybdate of a powellite structure that naturally occurs as CaMoO 4 , adopting a scheelite-type tetragonal phase (space group I 4 1/a, Z = 4).…”
