Ak. Pyartman et al., MUTUAL INFLUENCE OF TRIVALENT RARE-EARTH-METAL IONS AT THEIR EXTRACTION FROM NITRATE SOLUTIONS BY MIXTURES OF TRIBUTYL-PHOSPHATE AND DIISOOCTYL METHYLPHOSPHONATE, Radiochemistry, 37(1), 1995, pp. 50-54
Extraction of yttrium-group lanthanide(III) and yttrium nitrates from
multicomponent solutions by mixtures of tri-n-butyl phosphate and diis
ooctyl methylphosphonate has been examined at 298.15 K and pH 2. A phy
sicochemical and mathematical model has been developed to describe dis
tribution and mutual influence of rare-earth metal ions in multicompon
ent solutions as influenced by the total concentration of rare-earth m
etals in aqueous phase and compositions of the concentrate and of orga
nic phase.
