چکیده
پاکسازی سازههای آلوده به مواد پرتوزا یکی از مهمترین حوزههای شیمی محیط زیست است. در این پژوهش، پوشش پلیمری جداشونده حاوی شناساگر Br-PADAP جهت شناسایی و حذف آلاینده حاوی نیترات اورانیل شش آبه ساخته شد. در این بررسی برای اولین بار اثر pH بررسی شد. همچنین پارامترهای زمینههای مختلف، غلظت آشکارساز، دمای خشک شدن آلاینده، دمای خشک شدن پوشش، و خصوصیات مکانیکی روی جذب آلاینده مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. نتایج ارزیابیهای FT-IR، TGA و سنتیلاسیون مایع، حضور یون اورانیم در پوشش را اثبات کرد. پوشش پلیمری حاوی Br-PADAP و EDTA با جذب آلاینده از رنگ صورتی به رنگ قهوهای تغییر میکند که ارزیابی کمی انجام شده براساس روشهای پردازش تصویر با استفاده از نرمافزار MATLAB این تغییر رنگ را نشان داد. نتایج اندازهگیریهای سنتیلاسیون مایع نشان میدهد که فاکتور آلایندهزدایی در این پوشش، در ppm 2000 بالای 97% است که بالاتر از مطالعات قبلی میباشد. در این مطالعه محلول پلیمری با فرمولاسیون بهینه و فیلم منعطف بهدست آمد.

چکیده [English]
The decontamination of structures with radioactive substances is one of the most important areas of environmental chemistry. In this study, an intelligent polymeric coating containing a Br-PADAP detector was made to identify and remove the uranyl nitrate contaminant (UO2(NO3)2.6H2O). In this study, the effect of pH was investigated for the first time. Also, the parameters of different substrates, detector concentration, contaminant drying temperature, coating drying temperature, and mechanical properties of the contaminant adsorption were investigated. The results of an evaluation of FT-IR, TGA, and liquid scintillation tests well prove the presence of uranium ions in the coating. The polymer coating containing the EDTA and Br-PADAP detector becomes purple to brown by absorbing a contaminant solution containing uranium ions. Quantitative evaluation based on MATLAB software image processing methods also shows a color change. Decontamination factors (DFs) in this coating were shown to be above 97% at 2000 ppm, and higher than in previous studies. The polymer solution was obtained with optimal formulation and flexible film.
