I. Fidelis et J. Krejzler, DEHYDRATION OF LANTHANIDE AQUATIONS IN THE COURSE OF THEIR EXTRACTIONIN THE TRIBUTYLPHOSPHATE (TBP) - ISOTHIOCYANATE SYSTEM, Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 173(1), 1993, pp. 47-53
Extraction coefficients for all lanthanides have been determined in tw
o systems: 0.2M TBP-3M NaNCS, and 3.6M TBP-0.2M NaNCS. The data have b
een used for the calculation of relative changes in thermodynamic func
tions accompanying the investigated extraction process. The compensati
on of enthalpy and entropy changes is found as a result of dehydration
of the lanthanide aquaions.
