RADIOCHEMICAL SEPARATION OF CADMIUM BY AMALGAM EXCHANGE
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4033707
The radiochemical separation of cadmium by an amalgam exchange technique was critically evaluated. In the procedure, the cadmium amalgam exchange step is followed by a back extraction with thallous ion to selectively remove the cadmium from contaminants in the mercury. Cadmium yields of 80% were obtained with less than 0.1% contamnination of most typical elements. Indium, thallium, and selenium contaminate the separation to a greater extent. The procedure can be carried out in 8 minutes with no special equipment. Mineral acids below 1 M do not affect the exchange but oxidizing agents such as U/sup 6+/ and Ce/sup 4+/ must be given special attention. (auth)
