The hydrolysis of hydroxamic acid complexants in the presence of non-oxidizing metal ions 1: Ferric ions. [PDF]
Hydroxamic acids (XHAs) are organic compounds with affinities for cations such as Fe3+, Np4+ and Pu4+ and have been identified as useful reagents in nuclear fuel reprocessing. Acid catalyzed hydrolysis of free XHAs is well known and may impact negatively
