Nanohydroxyapatite and its textures as potential carriers of promising short-lived lead isotopes

Аннотация

The possibility of sorption and cocrystallization binding of lead(n) with nanohydroxyapatite (HAP) acting as a potential carrier of short-lived lead radionuclides ^211,212Pb was studied. The peculiarities of the kinetics were revealed, and the isotherms of sorption of lead ions on hydroxyapatite with different textures were constructed. A multistage sorption mechanism accompanied by a change in the structure and morphology of the sorbent was studied. The possibility of the formation of a new phase (hydroxypyromorphite) of lead during the sorption and cocrystallization interaction was shown. The introduction of lead into the synthesis of HAP at the early stages of crystallization exerts the highest effect on its morphology and structure. The optimization of the formation of the HAP-Pb composite over the course of the process will make it possible to use the short-lived ²¹¹Pb radionuclide in subsequent experiments.
