Abstract Nuclear waste management presents significant challenges due to its long-term environmental impact, high radioactivity, and extreme toxicity. To address these concerns, the development of innovative materials can offer promising solutions for improving sustainability, safety, durability in treatment immobilization. This paper explores advanced – such as glass-ceramics, ceramics, geopolymers, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), nanomaterials that exhibit exceptional chemical stability, durability, resistance radiation-induced degradation. These have potential efficiently encapsulate high-level radioactive while overcoming limitations traditional methods like vitrification cementation, which, though effective, struggle with stability containment capacity. The review highlights superior thermal resilience, increased waste-loading capacities, enhanced radiation damage provided by cutting-edge materials. Furthermore, it examines advantages, challenges, future novel materials, emphasizing their role enhancing efficiency, sustainability nuclear management.
