'To expand the authors efforts to provide families of inorganic ion exchangers useful on a global scale. In carrying out this objective, they will synthesize a variety of ion exchange materials, determine their structures and where necessary alter these structures to build in the desired properties. The underlying thermodynamic, kinetic and molecular basis of ion exchange behavior will be elucidated and their suitability for nuclear waste remediation will be assessed. As of September 1, 1996, they have synthesized a number of highly selective inorganic ion exchangers, determined their crystal structures and elucidated the mechanism of exchange for a number of these exchangers.
