Incorporation of iodine(i) into high-pressure vitrified glasses is a potential solution for immobilization of 129I radioisotopes. The solubility and speciation of iodine are influenced by pressure, alkali content, and glass optical basicity. Iodine dissolution induces oxygen loss and improves the durability of the glass.
Incorporation of iodine(i) into high-pressure vitrified glasses appears to be a potential solution for the immobilization of 129I radioisotopes. Under these conditions, I dissolution is strongly enhanced; however, the impact I dissolution has on the glass structure remains to be determined to assess the matrix durability. We have experimentally studied the change in I solubility and speciation in a series of sodium aluminoborosilicate glasses (Na2O ranging from 10 to 40 mol%) held at 0.25 and 1.0 GPa and 1250 degrees C. As expected, the I solubility increases with pressure and with increasing Na2O and is positively correlated with the glass optical basicity. The I speciation determined by XPS is changing with the initial loaded source of iodine (either I2 or I2O5) with a predominant iodide form (I-) in the glass structure. The investigation of the oxygen environment in the I-bearing glasses using O 1s XPS revealed that I dissolution induces an apparent oxygen loss within the glass structure. This result is consistent with our current view on I dissolution mechanisms. Furthermore, the subsequent simulations of the O 1s XPS spectra suggest that I dissolution consumes non-bridging oxygen to form bridging oxygen. This change in the oxygen speciation points toward an increase in the glass durability, which is an important aspect for nuclear waste immobilization. Incorporation of iodine into high-pressure vitrified glasses is a strong function of alkali content. The vitrification under high-pressure conditions could represent a potential solution for the immobilization of 129I radioisotopes.
