    However, there is no real demand in chemistry, physics, or engineering for isolating 234 U. Very small pure samples of 234 U can be extracted via the chemical ion-exchange process, from samples of plutonium-238 that have aged somewhat to allow some alpha decay to 234 U.

  3. Alpha,alpha-trehalose-phosphate synthase (UDP-forming)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha,alpha-trehalose...

    In enzymology, an alpha,alpha-trehalose-phosphate synthase (UDP-forming) (EC 2.4.1.15) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction UDP-glucose + D-glucose 6-phosphate ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } UDP + alpha,alpha-trehalose 6-phosphate

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRC_Handbook_of_Chemistry...

    The CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics is a comprehensive one-volume reference resource for science research. First published in 1914, it is currently (as of 2024) in its 105th edition, published in 2024. It is known colloquially among chemists as the "Rubber Bible", as CRC originally stood for "Chemical Rubber Company". [2]

    However, the 231 Pa (with a half-life of 3.27 × 10 4 years) formed via (n,2n) reactions with 232 Th (yielding 231 Th that decays to 231 Pa), while not a transuranic waste, is a major contributor to the long-term radiotoxicity of spent nuclear fuel. While 231 Pa can in principle be converted back to 232

  8. Protactinium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protactinium

    Protactinium-231 arises naturally from the decay of natural uranium-235, and artificially in nuclear reactors by the reaction 232 Th + n → 231 Th + 2n and the subsequent beta decay of 231 Th. It was once thought to be able to support a nuclear chain reaction, which could in principle be used to build nuclear weapons ; the physicist Walter ...

    231 Th has 141 neutrons. It is the decay product of uranium-235. It is found in very small amounts on the earth and has a half-life of 25.5 hours. [53] When it decays, it emits a beta ray and forms protactinium-231. It has a decay energy of 0.39 MeV. It has a mass of 231.0363043 u.
