RELATIVE DISSOLUTION RATES OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS USED AT AWE.

Radiat Prot Dosimetry

Atomic Weapons Establishment, Aldermaston, Reading RG7 4PR, UK.

Published: September 2016

A simple in vitro dissolution test was used to provide a semi-quantitative comparison of the relative dissolution rates of samples of radioactive materials used at Atomic Weapons Establishment in a lung fluid surrogate (Ringer's solution). A wide range of dissolution rates were observed for aged legacy actinides, freshly produced actinide alloys and actinides from waste management operations.
