THE EXTRACTION OF LANTHANONS WITH ALKALI METAL AMALGAMS. I. SAMARIUM AND YTTERBIUM

Journal Article · · Journal of Inorganic and Nuclear Chemistry (England) Merged with Inorg. Nucl. Chem. Lett. to form Polyhedron
The extraction of samarium and ytterbium from solutions of lanthanon concentrates with sodium amalgam was studied, using a dropwise extraction procedure. The reproducibility of the method was established. Extraction of the elements depends on the samarium or ytterbium content of the lanthanon concertrate used, and also on the pH of the solution. Under certain conditions marginal quartities of other lanthanons are extracted. Mechanisms of the reaction are discussed. (auth)
