Actinide Covalency

Actinide Covalency is a chemical bonding phenomenon characterized by the sharing of electron density between actinide elements and ligands through partial orbital overlap, distinguished from purely ionic interactions by the involvement of actinide 5f and 6d orbitals in covalent bond formation.
