Interlink between solubility, structure, surface and thermodynamics in the ThO2(s, hyd)–H2O(l) system

The impact of temperature on a freshly precipitated ThO2(am, hyd) solid phase was investigated using a combination of undersaturation solubility experiments and a multi-method approach for the characterization of the solid phase. XRD and EXAFS confirm that ageing of ThO2(am, hyd) at T = 80°C promote...
