The particle sizes of the insoluble solids from two of the Tank 41H saltcake samples have been determined by scanning electron microscopy. Settling velocities of the solids have been calculated using Stokes Law. Thus, it is concluded that the formation of a solid phase consisting of uranium without significant amounts of Cr, Fe, Mn, and Zn is not possible during the dissolution of saltcake.
