Volumetric Properties of PEG-400 in FS-13 Diluent for 293.15 K to 343.15 K at 0.1 MPa

Pranay Kumar Sinha, Shekhar Kumar, U. Kamachi Mudali

Abstract


PEG-400 in FS-13 solvent was proposed for strontium extraction from spent fuel solution in back end of nuclear fuel cycles. Densities and viscosities of solutions of PEG-400 and FS-13 were not available in literature. Densities and viscosities of binary mixture of extractant PEG-400 in FS-13 diluent was measured from 293.15 to 323.15 K. The excess molar volume (VE) and excess Gibb’s free energy of activation (DGE) was evaluated from density measurements from 293.15 to 323.15 K.
