I. Mohanty et al., LIQUID-LIQUID-EXTRACTION OF URANIUM(VI) WITH THE BINARY MIXTURE OF ACETYL ACETONE AND N-CAPRYLIC ACID, Radiochimica Acta, 72(2), 1996, pp. 79-82
Extraction studies of uranium(VI) with acetyl acetone (HAA) and n-capr
ylic acid (HR) have been carried out at different equilibrium pHs. The
extracted species are proposed to be UO2(AA)(2) and UO(2)R(2)(HR)(2)
on the basis of slope analysis. Synergistic effects have been studied
with the binary mixture of the extractants. Salt effect on the extract
ion has also been carried out with NaCl, Na2SO4, CH3COONa and NaSCN sa
lts.
