Dynamic ion-exchange chromatography with post-column reaction detection for the determination of the rare earth elements in monazites

Summary Separation and determination of lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium and samarium in monazites have been achieved by dynamic ion-exchange chromatography. The ore samples are decomposed by sulfuric acid and the rare earths are separated in a group as oxalates. The rare earth elements are then separated from each other on a column of bonded phase silica by gradient elution with 0.05 to 0.5 M lactic acid (pH 3.5) in the presence of 0.01 M sodium 1-octanesulfonate. Post-column reaction with Arsenazo III is used for detection and quantification of the individual rare earth elements. Results are quoted for lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium and samarium in monazites. Detection limit is 1 μg ml⁻¹ with a S/N ratio of 3. The separation is complete within 27 min valley to valley resolution. Precision of better than 1% can usually be obtained.

Identification of cerium in the presence of other rare earths

In the presence of other rare earths, cerium is best identified with redox indicators. p-Sulfanilic acid is a fairly specific indicator for cerium(IV), giving a red coloration with more than 6 p.p.m. o-Tolidine and diphenylamine sulfonate can identify smaller amounts of cerium(IV), but many oxidants interfere.

Photochemical precipitation of thorium and cerium and their separation from other ions in aqueous solution

Thorium was precipitated from homogeneous solution by exposing solutions of thorium and periodate in dilute perchloric acid to 253.7 nm radiation from a low-pressure mercury lamp. Periodate is reduced photochemically to iodate which causes the formation of a dense precipitate of the basic iodate of thorium(IV). The precipitate was redissolved, the iodate reduced, the thorium precipitated first as the hydroxide, then as the oxalate and ignited to the dioxide for weighing. Thorium(IV) solutions containing 8-200 mg of ThO(2) gave quantitative results with a standard deviation (s) of 0.2 mg. Separations from 25 mg each of iron, calcium, magnesium, 50 mg of yttrium and up to 500 mg of uranium(VI) were quantitative (s = 0.25 mg). Separations from rare earths, except cerium, were accomplished by using hexamethylenetetramine rather than ammonia for the precipitation of the hydroxide. Cerium(III) was similarly precipitated and converted into CeO(2) for weighing. Quantitative results were obtained for 13-150 mg of CeO(2) with a standard deviation of 0.2 mg. Separations from 200 mg of uranium were quantitative. Other rare earths and yttrium interfered seriously. The precipitates of the basic cerium(IV) and thorium iodates obtained are more compact than those obtained by direct precipitation and can be handled easily. Attempts to duplicate Suzuki's method for separating cerium from neodymium and yttrium were not successful.     

Spectrophotometric study and analytical application of rare-earth Tiron complexes-II Determination of europium

The absorption spectra of europium-Tiron complexes in aqueous solution have been measured from 340 to 600 nm. The absorbance at 390 and 420 nm follows Beer's law up to 0.8 mg ml (pH 6.2-6.6). Other rare earths except for cerium(III) did not interfere. The interference of cerium could be removed by addition of ascorbic acid. The combining ratio of Tiron to europium has been found to be 1:1.     

Determination of neodymium by ion-exchanger absorptiometry with the f-f electron transition band

Summary Ion-exchanger absorptiometry, based on the direct measurement of light absorption by neodymium in the cation-exchange phase, has been developed for metal determination. In the presence of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) about 99% of the neodymium in a 200-ml sample solution (pH 2.2 to 2.5) was concentrated in 0.50 g Muromac 50W-X12 cation exchanger within 15 min. EDTA does not interfere with the sorption of neodymium ions on the resin but suppresses spectrophotometric interference by ferric ions and ion-exchange saturation by ferric and thorium cations. The resin-phase attenuations at 740.5 nm and of the resin background at 620 nm were used for measurements with a 5-mm cell. Neodymium in the range 0.1 – 10 mg could be simply and rapidly determined without interference from other rare earths and the proposed method was used to analyse the rare-earth minerals and alloys.

Simultaneous determination of lanthanum and cerium in mixed rare earths with p-acetylarsenazo by spectrophotometry

A new method has been developed for the simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of small amounts of lanthanum and cerium in the presence of large amounts of rare earth elements. Lanthanum (III) and cerium (III) were determined spectrophotometrically with p-acetylarsenazo as the color reagent in the chloroacetic acid medium at pH 3.1 by measuring the absorbances of the complexes at 670 nm. The remained rare earths were masked with ethylenediaminetetracetic acid and ethylenediaminetetracetic acid-zinc during the analysis. The optimum conditions for the simultaneous determination of lanthanum and cerium have been defined. The individual content of lanthanum (III) and cerium (III) were determined by varying the amounts of EDTA and EDTA-Zn used in the analysis and solving the simultaneous absorbance equations based on the Beer's law. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the determination of lanthanum and cerium in Longnan mixed rare earth oxides and other heavy rare earths without preliminary separation with satisfactory results. The relative errors of all analytical results of the method were not more than 2% with good precision. The procedure does not require separation of lanthanum, cerium and the other rare earth elements.     

The determination of lanthanum,cerium and thorium without separations: The determination of lanthanum and cerium in thorium

A method is proposed for the spectrophotometric determination of small quantities of lanthanum, cerium and thorium in the presence of one another without separations. Cerium is estimated from its absorption peak in the ultraviolet region, thorium with thorin, and the 3 elements together with arsenazo. The lanthanum is calculated after subtraction of the combined absorbances of the arsenazo complexes of the thorium and cerium. The procedure can be readily applied to the determination of microgram amounts of the 2 rare earths in thorium. In this case the majority of the thorium is removed from the solution by solvent extraction with TTA before the estimation of the rare earths. The interference of iron is considered and proposals made for its removal.     

Concentration of all rare earth impurities of cerium sub-group rare earth matrices

The separability of all rare earth impurities from cerium sub-group matrices was investigated. It was found that anion exchange chromatography carried out with aqueous methanol solutions of nitrates provides a useful method for the concentration of all rare earth impurities in neodymium and gadolinium matrices. The concentrate of the impurities can be processed further as required by the method chosen for their analytical determination.     

Amperometry with Two Polarizable Electrodes. Chelometric Determination of Rare Earths

Abstract

The method of determining rare earths by chelometric EDTA titration with biamperometric end-point indication using two stationary platinum electrodes was studied. The convenient pH range for the determination of lanthanum is 5.0 – 8.0, for yttrium 3.5 – 8.0 and for ytterbium 3.0 – 8.0. Rare earths have been determined in the presence of iron and thorium. Iron and thorium can be titrated at pH 1.5 – 2.0 and rare earths of the lanthanum group can be determined by successive titration at pH 5.0. Large amounts of rare earths of the yttrium group interfere with the determination of iron and thorium.     

Spectrophotometric determination of cerium subgroup rare earths in nickel-base alloys in the presence of yttrium with p-acetylchlorophosphonazo and mixed surfactants

Rare earth elements react with p-acetylchlorophosphonazo (CPApA) to form colour complexes. In the presence of emulsifier OP and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), the yttrium complex is not formed because of micellar masking, while the cerium subgroup rare earths give more sensitive reactions with CPApA(epsilon(Ce) = 1.16 x 10(5) 1 . mol(-1) . cm(-1)) due to micellar sensitization. Most foreign ions can be tolerated in considerable amounts. The optimum conditions of the complex formation reaction and the composition of the Ce-CPApA complex are described. A simple method is proposed for the determination of cerium subgroup rare earths in nickel-base alloys with satisfactory results.     

Simultaneous determination of neodymium, erbium and holmium in rare earth mixtures with 2-phenyltrifluoroacetone and octylphenol poly(ethyleneglycol) ether by third-derivative spectrophotometry

The complexes of the rare earth metals with 2-phenyltrifluoroacetone in the presence of TX-100 are reported. The characteristic absorbances of neodymium, holmium and erbium complexes can be increased by factors of 8.5, 31 and 15 respectively, compared to those of the cholrides. The third-derivative spectra have been used to eliminate the interference of cerium, and the sensitivities are increased again by factors of 7.4, 5.5 and 6.5. A method for the direct determination of neodymium, erbium and holmium in rare earth mixtures is proposed.     

Selective determination of yttrium in geological materials by ion-interaction chromatography

Selective separation and determination of yttrium in rare earth ores have been achieved by high performance ion-interaction chromatography. Ores are decomposed by sulfuric acid and the rare earths are precipitated in a group as oxalates. Yttrium is then separated from the other rare earths on a C-18 bonded phase silica column modified with 1-octanesulfonate by linear concentration gradient elution for 20 min with 0.15 to 0.40M glycolic acid(pH 3.5). Yttrium elutes at about 10 min between samarium and neodymium, being separated selectively from all the rare earths as well as scandium, thorium and uranium. Post-column reaction detection and quantitation with Arsenazo III [2,7-bis(2-arsonophenylazo)-1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene-3,6-disulfonic acid] are carried out at 650 nm. Quantitative results are quoted for yttrium in sophisticated, synthetic rare earth mixtures, monazite and xenotime.     

Direct spectrophotometric determination of Nd in mixed rare earths with semi-xylenol orange and cetylpyridinium chloride

The derivative absorption spectra of the neodymium complex with Semi-Xylenol Orange and cetylpyridinium chloride has been investigated. The characteristic absorption of the complex is approximately 350 times that of neodymium chloride. The fourth-order derivative spectrum has been used to eliminate the interference of the other lanthanides, and to increase the sensitivity by a further factor of 6. Beer's law is obeyed for 0-7.5 microg of Nd in 25 ml of solution. The relative standard deviation for 7 determinations of 1.8 microg/25 ml neodymium was 1.3%. The detection limits were 5.8 ng/ml in the absence of lanthanum and 11.2 ng/ml in the presence of 44 ng/ml lanthanum (or 36 ng/ml yttrium). The method has been used for the determination of neodymium in mixed rare earths, with satisfactory results.     

Spectral interferences in the determination of traces of scandium, yttrium and rare earth elements in “pure” rare earth matrices by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry-I. Cerium, neodymium and lanthanum matrices

The present paper deals with spectral interferences from cerium, neodymium and lanthanum on prominent lines of scandium, yttrium and rare earth elements (REE). The “true detection limit” criterion was used for rational wavelength line selection as proposed by boumans and vrakking [Spectrochim. Acta 42B, 819 (1987); 43B, 69 (1988)]. Analysis lines selected for cerium and neodymium matrices suffered both wing and line interferences. In the case of a lanthanum matrix, it is possible to choose mostly analysis lines that are free of line interference and negligible wing interference. The high degree of spectral interferences with a cerium or neodymium matrix significantly worsens the true detection limits.

A scheme for the analysis of monazite and monazite concentrates

A scheme using ion-exchange methods is described for the analysis of monazites and monazite concentrates. The sample is opened up with concentrated sulphuric acid, and the resultant solution is applied to a column of Zeocarb 225 resin. After phosphate has been washed out, lead, aluminium, titanium, iron, uranium, calcium and magnesium are eluted with N hydrochloric acid and determined by specific, mainly spectrophotometric, methods. Rare earth elements are eluted with 3 N hydrochloric acid. Cerium is separated from the other rare earths by solvent extraction of its nitrate with methyl iso-butyl ketone; both groups are determined gravimetrically. Thorium is eluted from the ion-exchange resin with 3.6 N sulphuric acid and determined spectrophotometrically with thorin.The sulphuric acid-insoluble minerals are brought into solution by a double fusion method, and the determinations are carried out by a combination of ion-exchange and photometric procedures. Silica, phosphorus pentoxide, tin and chromium are determined by photometric methods, using separate portions of the sample.Lanthanum, yttrium and ytterbium are determined in a 1 M perchloric acid solution of the mixed rare earth oxides (less cerium) using flame photometry. Samarium, praseodymium and neodymium are determined by spectrophotometry.
