ABSTRACT:

The applications of ion-exchangers in the several areas of nuclear fuel processing, radioactive waste management and radio chemical processes are increased tremendously. One of the draw-back of ion exchanger is that, they undergo chemical decomposition on exposure to ionising radiations. Hence an attempt is made to study the changes in physico-chemical parameters of lndion-225 after gamma treatment
