Several diluents for possible use in TBP Purex Plant solvent were tested. The tests included nitric --nitrous acid degradation, fission prcduct distribution under simulated plant conditions, emulsillcation, and radiolysis. The order of quality of four diluents is n-dcdecane> Soltrol 170> Shell Code 85030(82000)> Shell E-2342. (D.L.C.)
