There has been a considerable amount of interest in the ion-exchange properties layered zirconium phosphates. Potential applications remediation nuclear waste have renewed these inorganic materials, due to their high stability under acidic conditions typically found legacy pools. It well documented that substitution metals with different ionic radii into frameworks materials can alter chemical ...

A complete determination of the crystal structure of the binary intermetallic compound most rich in zinc, the t-phase, in the zirconium-zinc system has been carried out with use of all intensity data obtainable from single crystal Weissenberg photographs taken with Cu Ka radiation. The composition of the completely ordered phase is ZrZn22. The refinement of the structure was carried out by appl...

A novel hydrothermal zirconium oxide (ZrO2) ion exchange material was successfully synthesized by hydrothermal technique. The material has been characterized using different tools such as thermal analysis (DTA-TGA), FT-IR and X-ray diffraction studies. The results show that the prepared ZrO2 is pure and with a unique shape and it belongs to the hexagonal system. Chemical resistively of the mate...
