Investigation of the Electrophoretic Mobility of the
Actinides Th, U, Np, Pu, and Am in Different Oxidation States
Posted on 2019-08-23 - 18:46
The
electrophoretic mobilities (μe) of the actinides
Th and U–Am in different oxidation states (prepared in 1 M
HCl and 1 M HClO4) have been determined by capillary electrophoresis
(CE)-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) using 1
M acetic acid as the background electrolyte, which has proven to provide
an excellent setup for trace analysis at environmentally relevant
concentrations (1 × 10–9 M). The values are
independent of the respective acid solution. The μe of the Pu oxidation states +III to +VI have been measured. They
agree with both the available literature data and the redox-stable
analogues (Eu(III), Th(IV), Np(V), U(VI)) that have also been investigated.
The trend in the μe for the actinides U–Pu
was found to be An(III) > An(VI) > An(V) > An(IV). The μe values of Am(III) (μe(Am(III)) = 3.86 ×
10–4 cm2/(Vs)), U(IV) (μe(U(IV))
= 0.34 × 10–4 cm2/(Vs)), and U(VI)
(μe(U(VI)) = 1.51 × 10–4 cm2/(Vs)) have been measured for the first time under these experimental
conditions. Furthermore, the measured μe values show
systematic trends that can be rationalized on the basis of the calculated
species distribution of the actinides in 1 M acetic acid and the corresponding
average effective charges (qeff).
