Title: ON THE SEPARATION OF VANADIUM, MOLYBDENUM AND TUNGSTEN BY MEANS OF PAPER CHROMATOGRAPHY. PART I

Journal Article · · Sci. Sinica (Peking)
OSTI ID:4140544

Molybdenum, tangsten, and vanadium are separated by chromatography as per-acids, and then detected with tannin solution. Of the seven solvents tested, n-butanolhydrogen peroxide-nitric acid mixtures offer the best separations. With the addition of dioxane, the R/sub F/ values of these elements increase, while vanadium and tungsten spots overlap. The formation of per-acids avoids the retainment of tungsten on the original spot and the tailings of vanadium and molybdenum spots. (B.O.G.)
