Popis: | The thermal decomposition of uranyl fluoride was stadied by a thermogravimetric technique between 700 and 950 deg C. At temperatures below 900 deg C, the main decomposition reaction is 3 UO/sub 2/F/sub 2/ yields 2/3 U/sub 3/O/sub 8/ + UF/sub 6/ + 1/3 O/sub 2/. In an atmosphere of dry helium, the rate of decomposition was first order with respect to uranyl fluoride. The rate constants, determined with a constant helium flow rate of 270 cc (STP)/min, were k = 3.72 x l0/sup 11/ exp (-7l,800/RT). Sublimation of uranyl fluoride, as a parallel, first order process, occurred at temperatures above 825 deg C. (auth) |
