Uranium extraction coefficients with Amberiite LA-2 were lower than those with most other commercial secondary amines. Kerosene-tridecanol solutions of an N-alkyl BETA -aminocarboxyiic acid extracted U strongly from dilute nitrate solution, where the simple amines do not extract. Preliminary tests of U extraction from sulfate solutions are described. Data are given on di(2- ethylhexyl)phosphate losses to alkaline solutions, soiubllity distribution losses of monoalkylphosphoric acids, and mono(2,6,8,-trimethylnonyl-4)phosphoric acid loss from kerosene soiution to aqueous acidic liquors. Study was continued of cation exchange in hydrocarbon solutions of di(2-ethylhexyl/phosphate as a possible means of extracting radioactive strontium from waste solutions. Isotherms were determined for extraction of U from synthetic Marysvale liquor with a new amine, Amberlite LA-2. Data are given on the extraction of vanadium and phosphate with amines. Solvent entrainment studies in miker settlers are described. The determination of molecular weights of amine species in benzene solution by light scattering is described.
