This paper reports the data on the extraction of U(VI), Pu(IV) and Th(
IV) from nitric acid by tri-isobutyl phosphate, tri-n-amyl phosphate,
tri-isoamyl phosphate and tri-n-hexyl phosphate and provides a compari
son of their extraction behaviour with that of tri-n-butyl phosphate.
Data on the third phase formation in the system Th(NO3)4-HNO3-1.1 M tr
ialkyl phosphate/n-dodecane are also presented.
