Abstract
Layered titanium phosphates and heat-treated tin phosphate showed high separation factors (1.015-1.018) for lithium isotopes; the fractionat ion properties could be explained by considering two factors: the degr ee of Li+ dehydration in the solid phase and the affinity of the ion-e xchange site toward Li+.
