Abstract
Synergism is observed in the extraction of uranium(VI) by the binary m ixture of Aliquat 336 and PC 88A (2-ethylhexylphosphonic acid mono-2-e thylhexyl ester) from 0.5-6M HNO3 solution showing a maximum at 3M. In H2SO4 medium, antagonism at lower acidity and slight synergism at hig her acid concentrations have been observed. Synergism occurs in the ex traction of Am(III) from nitrate solutions when a mixture of Aliquat 3 36 and TOPO is used.
