The TcO 4 -precipitation with organic complexes of Cu(II) from nitric acid solutions was studied. Complex Cu(phen) 3 (NO 3 ) 2 was chosen as the optimal precipitant. The conditions for maximum Tc precipitation of 95 ± 3 % were determined. It was shown the possibility to obtain metal-Tc alloys by thermal treatment of the precipitates. As found, the addition of the fusible metal (Sn) to the sediment was required to receive appropriate matrix. Cu-Tc-Sn matrix was tested for Tc leaching.
Separation of 12sSb from tin using highly basic, medium-basic, and weakly basic ion-exchangers was studied. The best results were obtained for AN-31 weakly basic anion exchanger. The yield of 125Sb was 95 -98 % of the initial activity, the yield of tin, 98 + 0.5% of the initial amount. The separation coefficient is 106-107 for one cycle. A procedure based on ion exchange was developed.Extraction procedures of separation of 125Sb from tin were studied. Isoamyl alcohol, ethyl acetate, and di-n-butyl ether were used as extracting agents. The most efficient extracting agent is di-n-butyl ether. Carrier-free radiochemically pure sample of 125Sb was produced. More than 20 mCi of the target product was recovered. The extraction recovery procedure of 125Sb has been developed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
