Abstract
A LLX procedure for carrier-free separation of the radioisotopes, Sc-4 7, V-48 and Cr-48,Cr-49,Cr-51, the 40 MeV alpha-particle activation pr oducts of titanium has been developed. Sequential separations of the r adionuclides produced in the titanium matrix through the nuclear react ions (alpha, alpha pxn), (alpha, pxn) and (alpha, xn) have been perfor med through LLX from aqueous H2SO4 and HClO4 acid media using the liqu id cation exchanger, HDEHP, as an extractant. Purity of the carrier-fr ee radiotracers at different stages of their separations has been veri fied by gamma-ray spectrometry.
