“…These spectra agree well with the spectra presented by Cohen [5]. The molar absorption coefficients and limits of detection of the major absorption bands measured using the 1-meter LCW are presented in Table 1 with literature values of the molar absorption coefficients for comparison taken from Silva and Nitsche [7].…”

“…The molar absorption coefficients for these absorption bands were calculated using a standard Beer's Law plots. The resulting molar absorption coefficients for all absorption bands are presented in Table 2 The Pu(IV) absorption spectrum in 1 M perchloric acid is presented in Figure 1 and is characteristic of those presented previously by Cohen [5]. This spectrum however does not show an increasing baseline attributed to the formation of Pu(IV) colloidal species [1].…”

“…The unique spectra of the plutonium aquo ions provides the information regarding oxidation state, and often times speciation information [5,6]. However, the low molar absorption coefficients of the plutonium absorption bands (2 -550 M -1 cm -1 ) make spectrophotometry with traditional 1 or 10 cm cuvettes inadequate for studies at dilute concentrations [5,7].…”

Detection and quantification of the aquo ions of Pu in 1 M HClO 4 was carried out using a 1-meter liquid core waveguide (LCW) coupled to a fiber optic UV-Vis spectrometer. Detection limits of 7 × 10 -7 M for Pu(VI), 1.6 × 10 -5 M for Pu(V), 5 × 10 -6 M for Pu(IV) and 8 × 10 -6 M for Pu(III) were achieved. The limits of detection represent increases of 18 to 33 times those achievable using a conventional 1-cm path length. Because of the much lower detection limits of the LCW, routine identification of the oxidation states in dilute Pu solutions can be made.

“…Calculation of the molar absorptivities from standard plots ( Table 2) showed excellent agreement with literature values 3,4 . Limits of detection for the waveguide were calculated to be 16 × 10 -6 M for Pu(V), 8 × 10 -6 M for Pu(III), 5 × 10 -6 M for Pu(IV), and 7 × 10 -7 for Pu(VI).…”

The discovery of plutonium, its economic and military importance, sources, production, and nuclear properties are reviewed. The economic aspects of weapons‐grade and reactor‐grade plutonium are outlined. The preparation and properties of plutonium metal are discussed in detail. A presentation of the physical and chemical properties of atomic plutonium and stable plutonium ions is given. The complexation and hydrolysis properties of these ions are recapitulated. Analytical chemistry, separations technology, and metallurgy (including pyrometallurgical processing) are described. There is a brief treatment of storage and disposal of excess weapons plutonium. The chemistry of several classes of plutonium compounds is described: oxides, halides, oxyhalides, hydrides, carbides, silicides, nitrides, sulfides, and oxalates. The chapter concludes with a treatment of environmental, health, and safety aspects of plutonium. Vol. 19, pp. 407–443, 197 refs. through September 1, 1995.
