The extraction of zinc(II) from acid media by N-n-heptylaniline in xylene has been studied for metal distribution measurements. Various physicochemical parameters like acid concentration, reagent concentration, equilibrium time, effect of diluents, aqueous to organic phase ratio, stripping agents and loading capacity were investigated for the quantitative extraction. The extraction was carried out from 3 M hydrochloric acid and 0.5 M N-n-heptylaniline concentration. Zinc(II) was selectively extracted and separated from many metal ions and synthetic mixtures. The nature of the extracted species was determined. Zinc(II) was analyzed from pharmaceutical samples and nycil talk powder.
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.
