The steady-state dissolution rates of Nd-britholite Ca 9 Nd(PO 4 ) 5 SiO 4 F 2 have been measured at 25°C as a function of aqueous solution composition in open-system mixed flow reactors. Measured Nd-britholite dissolution rates based on Ca, P, and F release are found to be close to corresponding apatite dissolution rates; these 25°C rates decrease from 10 −8 to 10 −12 mol/m 2 /s with increasing pH from 3 to 12. Measured Nd release rates are far slower than those of these other elements; Nd concentrations in solution appear to limited by precipitation of a secondary phosphate phase, which limits aqueous Nd concentrations to <10 −12 mol/kg at near neutral conditions. Correspondingly, it appears likely that aqueous actinide release from analogous waste hosts will be similarly limited by the precipitation of sparingly soluble phases.
