Results of EXAFS analysis indicated that Eu was surrounded by -9.00 atoms in first coordination shell at REu-O =2.40A, and second shell of Mn atoms at REu-Mn ≈ 3.60 was observed for the three adsorption samples. These findings suggested formation of a bidentate surface complex with Eu（III） bonding by edge sharing to MnO6-octahedron on y-MnOOH surface. Both the macroscopic interaction data and the molecular level evidence of Eu（III） microstructure at the 3,-MnOOH-water interface should be factored into better understanding the fate and mobility of Eu（III） and related radionuclides in the natural soil and water environment.展开更多
