“…5 that the HETPs obtained at a longer migration distance are almost constant (0.49 mm) for migrations up to 60 m. We have surveyed previously reported 15 N ion-exchange enrichment systems, and the HETPs reported by Spedding (3), Park (4), and Kruglov (5), and the calculated HETP based on the data in the work of Urgell (8) are summarized in Table 1 along with the HETPs obtained in the present work and in our previous work (6). Spedding (3), Park (4), and Urgell (8) used gel-type resins; Kruglov (5) used a macroreticular resin; and a highly crosslinked, highly porous microreticular resin was used in our previous work (6). The eluent concentrations were 0.12 and 0.6 M in the experiments by Spedding (3); 0.3 and 0.6 M by Park (4); 0.6 M by Urgell (8); 0.98 M by Kruglov (5); and 0.11, 0.22, 0.53, and 1.14 M in our previous work (6).…”
