Synergistic extraction of rare earth elements, actinium, americium, and barium with TTA and Pb resin from acetate buffer solutions

Journal Article · · Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry
The uptake behavior of 88Y, 140Ba, 140La, 141Ce, 152Eu, 228Ac, and 241Am was studied with batch uptake, kinetics and column studies in a synergistic extraction system with Pb resin and 2-thenoyltrifuoroacetone in acetate-ethanol solutions. The k' values are very high (>10,000) at near neutral pH (~5 to 6) for all of the radioisotopes studied. The kinetics are reasonably fast for column separations, though the uptake rate is dependent on the concentration of 2-thenoyltrifuoroacetone. Column studies were performed to demonstrate the separation of the trivalent actinides and lanthanides from barium and common fssion products (99Mo, 103Ru).
