Effects of Protective Shell Enclosures on Uranium Adsorbing Polymers

This study aims to evaluate the impact of shell enclosures on the uranium uptake of amidoxime-based polymeric adsorbents contained within. Researchers have observed that the tensile strength of the adsorbent's polyethylene backbone is degraded after γ-irradiation to induce grafting of the amido...
