An understanding of these two objectives will aid in the development of structure-property relationships for advanced waste forms for the actinides present in nuclear waste, the environmental impacts of actinide borates, and an improved understanding of bonding in the f-elements to be exploited for chemical separations. cache/9306sx63f68.txt txt/9306sx63f68.txt
