Zy. Tao et Qc. Li, STUDIES ON ION-EXCHANGE EQUILIBRIA AND KINETICS - VII - TB3-NA+ CATION-EXCHANGE EQUILIBRIA AND KINETICS IN ZEOLITE-Y(), Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 223(1-2), 1997, pp. 173-176
Tb-160 used as radiotracer and the equilibria and kinetics of 3<(Na)ov
er bar> + Tb3+ reversible arrow <(Tb)over bar> + 3Na(+) cation exchang
e with zeolite-Y were studied. The ion exchange isotherms and the Kiel
land plots at 298 and 303 K were obtained. It was found that the ion e
xchange late is controlled by particle diffusion. The integral interdi
ffusion coefficients for the direct and reverse exchanges at 298 K and
303 K were calculated. In addition, the <((TB)-T-160)over bar>/Tb iso
topic ion exchange was studied too.
