Description
Structural Chemistry of Inorganic Actinide Compounds is a collection of 13 reviews on structural and coordination chemistry
of actinide compounds. Within the last decade, these compounds have attracted considerable attention because of their importance for
radioactive waste management, catalysis, ion-exchange and absorption applications, etc. Synthetic and natural actinide compounds are
also of great environmental concern as they form as a result of alteration of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste under Earth surface
conditions, during burn-up of nuclear fuel in reactors, represent oxidation products of uranium miles and mine tailings, etc. The actinide
compounds are also of considerable interest to material scientists due to the unique electronic properties of actinides that give rise
to interesting physical properties controlled by the structural architecture of respective compounds.
The book provides both general
overview and review of recent developments in the field, including such emergent topics as nanomaterials and nanoparticles and their
relevance to the transfer of actinides under environmental conditions.
Audience
For structural, coordination and inorganic chemists, those in the nuclear industry and anyone interested in actinide compounds
