Highly-dense spherical particles of thorium-based oxides, ThO<SUB>2</SUB> and (Th, U)O<SUB>2</SUB>, prepared by the sol-gel method were subjected to dissolution with nitric acid containing 00.05 mol/l NaF at high temperatures above 120°C. The dissolution rate depended upon temperature, fluoride concentration and UO<SUB>2</SUB> content. High-temperature in the range of 120200°C enhanced the dissolution of the ThO<SUB>2</SUB>-based fuels. At low temperatures and/or low UO<SUB>2</SUB> concentrations, insoluble tetrafluoride precipitates were formed on the particle surfaces and they resulted in the decrease of the dissolution rates. In the present study, the apparent activation energies for the high-temperature dissolution were obtained.
