SEPARATION OF METAL IONS ON CHELATING RESIN

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4824725
Attempts were made to separate components of metal ion mixtures on columns of iminodiacetate type chelating resin. Distribution coefficients of metal ions in the system of sulfosalicylic acid and citric acid were calculated to determine the proper pH for the most efficient separations. Separations of metal ion mixtures using citric or sulfosalicylic acid solutions as eluting agents were for the most part, successful, although incomplete elutions were observed in some cases. Fluoride solutions were also found to be effective eluting agents for the separation of metal ions using columns of chelating resin. Separations of metal ion mixtures with either a 0.1M HF-0.1M NaF solution at pH 4.0 or a 0.1M HF acid solution at pH 5.5 as the eluting agent were accomplished. (auth)
