Systematic investigation of the strontium zirconium phosphate ceramic form for nuclear waste immobilization

The ability of Sr0.5Zr2(PO4)3 using as a perspective nuclear waste form, resistant to radiation damage, has been investigated. The obtained results highlight several concerns with application of Sr0.5Zr2(PO4)3 material as a host matrix, which is stable to extreme environmental condition action and able to include 90Sr radioisotope into insoluble framework structure.189
