Ak. Pyartman et al., MUTUAL EFFECT OF TRIVALENT RARE-EARTHS DURING EXTRACTION BY DI-ISO-OCTYLMETHYLPHOSPHONATE FROM MULTICOMPONENT NITRATE SOLUTIONS, Radiochemistry, 35(5), 1993, pp. 554-558
The extraction of trivalent rare-earth nitrates from multicomponent so
lutions by di-iso-octylmethylphosphonate at 298.15 K and pH 2 is exami
ned. Physicochemical and mathematical models describing the distributi
on and mutual effect of trivalent lanthanides and yttrium in the multi
component solutions as a function of the total concentration of rare e
arths in the aqueous and organic phases are presented.
