Separating Behaviors of Heavier Rare Earth Metal Ions in Centrifugal Partition Chromatography with Di(2-Ethylhexyl) Phosphoric Acid

Abstract

The separating behaviors of SmCl₃, EuCl₃, GdCl₃, TbCl₃, DyCl₃, HoCl₃, ErCl₃, TmCl₃, YbCl₃, and LuCl₃ in Centrifugal Partition Chromatography with the stationary phase containing a separator, Di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EHPA), are examined. The separation trends of these heavier rare earth metal ions were found to be almost as expected from the observations reported for the lighter rare earth metal ions. And the separator is also useful for mutual separation of these heavier rare earth metal ions.     

Further Results on Behaviors of Rare Earth Metal Ions in Centrifugal Partition Chromatography with DI(2-Ethylhexyl) Phosphoric Acid

Abstract

In centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) of rare earth metal ions (RECl₃) by the use of di(2-ethyl-hexyl)phosphate (D2EHPA) as “separator” in the stationary phase, effects of number of microcells and stationary solvent were investigated for improving separation. By increasing the number of microcells from 1200 (3 cartridges) to 2400 (6 cartridges), the peak resolution value (R) for the separation of PrCl₃ versus NdCl₃ was improved from 0.37 to 0.62. Heavier RE ions (ErCl₃ and YbCl₃) was able to separate almost completely by using CHCl₃ as stationary solvent. This result suggests that by adjusting these two factors, in addition to adjusting [HC1] in the mobile phase (previously reported), almost whole series of adjacent couples of RE ions will be effectively separated by CPC with acidic D2EHPA. In contrast, neutral tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) was found to be a poor separator.     

Liquid Membrane Transport of Heavier Rare Earth Metal Ions Based on CPC Results with Di(2-Ethylhexyl) Phosphoric Acid

Abstract

The behaviors of heavier rare earth metal ions in bulk liquid membrane transport systems were examined for Gd³⁺, Tb³⁺, Dy³, Ho³⁺, Er³⁺, Tm³, Yb³⁺ and Lu³⁺ ions. The liquid membrane transport system was constructed by aq. HCl/CHCl₃ containing Di (2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid/aq. HCl. The optimum concentration of HCl in the aqueous phase with respect to the rate of transport for these ions increased with the atomic number of the rare earth elements. This trend of transport behaviors was on the same line observed for lighter rare earth ions in the preceding work. Difference in the rate of transport can be used for selective liquid membrane transport of several sets of combination with these ions.     

Improved Separation of Closely Related Metal Ions by Centrifugal Partition Chromatography

Abstract

Centrifugal Partition Chromatography (CPC) has been used for the analytical scale separations of adjacent trivalent lanthanides. The stationary phase was 0.1 M Cyanex 272 (bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid) in heptane and the mobile phase was water at the appropriate pH. Baseline separations of the adjacent lanthanides were achieved with an observed column efficiency of 320 /pm 40 theoretical plates. The column efficiency decreased with flow rate, i.e., the normal Van Deemter behavior was observed. The distribution ratios (D) of selected trivalent lanthanides at different pH values were in general in good agreement with the values determined by batch solvent extraction method. The D obtained with CPC differed markedly from the solvent extraction values inn certain cases resulting in a dependence of separation factor (α) of adjacent lanthanides on pH. This anomaly is under further investigation. The number of theoretical plates, selectivity and resolution of adjacent lanthanides obtained with the current system is ssignificantly better than previously reported. We have demonstrated for the first time, that a mixture of light and heavy lanthanides can been efficiently separated in a single run by CPC, by using gradient pH elution.

Analytical Methods for Determining the Concentration Ratio in Mixtures of Trioctylphosphine Oxide and Di(2-Ethylhexyl)Phosphoric Acid

Abstract

Analytical methods are described for determining the concentration ratio of trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) and di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (D₂ EHPA) in hydrocarbon solvents or in mixtures where the D₂ EHPA is the solvent. The Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis (ESCA) method was used to analyze the mixtures for the relative amounts of phosphine oxide-phosphorus to phosphoric acid-phosphorus as well as the variance with the mixture composition of the Ols/P2p signal intensity. The nmr signal strength of the protons of the oxymethylene group of the D₂ EHPA and the signal strength of the other protons of D₂ EHPA and TOPO were measured in solutions of varying concentrations of D₂ EHPA and TOPO. Mass spectral comparisons of the molecular ion strengths of TOPO and D₂ EHPA were also correlated with mixture composition.

Iron Extraction with Di(2-Ethylhexyl)dithiophosphoric Acid and a Binary Extractant Based on It

Iron(III) extraction with trioctylmethylammonium di(2-ethylhexyl)dithiophosphate and di(2- ethylhexyl)dithiophosphoric acid was studied. It was shown that di(2-ethylhexyl)dithiophosphoric acid extracts iron in the form of the complex FeA₂, regardless of the oxidation state of iron in the initial aqueous solution. It was also shown that the iron(III) extraction with trioctylmethylammonium di(2-ethylhexyl)dithiophosphate over a wide acidity range occurs primarily to produce extractable substance (R₄N)FeCl₄; and at pH > 1, iron(II) dialkyldithiophosphate is also extracted into the organic phase.

Isolation of Rare Earth Element's Radionuclides from Phosphoric Acid Solutions on Cerium (III) Phosphate

Abstract

The isolation of the lanthanide phosphates by crystallization from the solutions of phosphoric acid with the concentration of 2–5 mol·dm^?3, produced during destruction of the apatite, was investigated. The kinetic parameters of crystallization of the lanthanide phosphates and the values of their solubility in phosphoric acid with various impurities under temperatures between 60–90°C have been obtained from the data on distribution of Ce¹⁴⁴ and Eu^152–154 radio- nuclides between the solution and the solid phase. The wide region of supersaturated solution metastability has been determined. The possibility to remove supersaturation in the metastable region by introduction of the cerium (III) phosphate seeds has been proved. Separation of the lanthan-ides from calcium and other accompanying elements in the apatites by crystallization of the phosphates on the CePO₄ ·0.5H₂O seed in the region of small supersaturation of strongly acid solutions has been studied. Calcium phosphate demonstrates the “salting out” effect on the lanthanide phosphates. By thermodynamic computations the ionic compositions of the produced solutions from breaking down the apatite and the solubilities of the lanthanide phosphates were obtained, which agrees with the experimental data. The distribution coefficients for the solid phase and the liquid phase are 1.1.10⁴ for cerium and 4–10³ for europeum. The lanthanides/calcium separation coefficient is 1.3·10³.

Extraction of Uranium with 2-Ethylhexyl Phosphonic Acid Mono-2-Ethylhexyl Ester (PC-88A)

The extraction behavior of uranium (VI) from chloride medium with 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester (PC-88A) in dodecane has been investigated under wide range of conditions. Attempts have been made to establish the extraction mechanism of uranium(VI) with PC-88A. Treatment of the distribution data by slope analysis technique showed the formation of a monomeric complex of the nature [UO₂(A₂H)₂]. Formation of this species was also confirmed by non-linear least square regression of the distribution data to the mathematical expression correlating percentage extraction and acidity. In this investigation attempts have also been made to develop a mathematical model for the system (UO₂Cl₂-HCl-H₂O-PC-88A-dodecane) using experimental data on the distribution of uranium against initial aqueous acidity at different initial metal concentration. The mathematical model D = 37.547±0.223/C _i ^1/2×[H _i ]² can be used to predict the concentration of uranium in organic as well as in aqueous phases at any initial concentration of uranium [C _i ] and initial hydrogen ion concentration [H _i ]. The extraction constant (K _ex ) has been calculated.
