Separation of Titanium from Rare Earths, Beryllium, Niobium, Iron, Aluminum, Thorium, Magnesium, Manganese, and Other Elements by Cation Exchange Chromatography.
A systematic study of the absorbabilities of cations with AG 50W-X8 resin in H₂SO₄ indicated that the difference in the equilibrium distribution coefficients of Ti(IV) and a considerable number of other ions is large enough for a good separation. This fact was applied to develop a cation exchange chromatographic procedure for the separation of Ti from Fe(III), Al(III), Be(II), Sc(III), Y(III), La(III), Th(IV), Mg(II), Mn(II), Co(II), Cu (II), Ni(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II). Titanium is eluted with 1N H₂SO₄ containing 1% of H₂O₂ as stabilizing agent to suppress hydrolysis, while the other ions stuy on the column. Ions such as Ga(III), Fe(II), Hg(II), Rg(I), Tl(I), Ag(I), and Cs(I) remain on the column as well. Nb(V), V(V), Mo(VI), Ta(V), and W(VI) can be eluted from the column with 0.5N H₂SO₄ containing 1% H₂O₂ before the separation of Ti from the more strongly absorbed elements is started. Ta(V) and W(VI), however, tend to interfere by hydrolysis. Zr(IV) and U(VI) accompany Ti. The separations are satisfactory when up to 5 xneq of Be or 10 meq of the other ions are present with Ti.
