OSTI ID:5277332

Investigation of the transformations of tributyl phosphate in contact with fluoridesulfuric acid solutions be means of method /sup 19/F and /sup 31/P NMR spectroscopy and potentiometric titration shows that in the course of time it undergoes processes of hydrolysis and fluorination. In the extracts acid butyl phosphates and phosphoric acid together with products of their fluorination were found. The extent of the breakdown of tributyl phosphate depends on the time and the composition of the aqueous solutions.
