Abstract:In the liquid-liquid extraction technology, the extractant is well-known to play a key role for separating target metal ions. The selection of appropriate extractant often decides the success of the extraction process. To date, a lot of extractants have been developed and their extraction properties have been evaluated for a variety of metal ions. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] In a previous study, we have developed novel bi-functional organophosphorus extractants in which two phosphonic acids were introd… Show more
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.
