Abstract:
The adsorption of Tc(Ⅶ) and its mechanism by the silica-based anion exchanger (SiR 4N) were investigated in the aqueous solution of nitric acid. It is found that the adsorption mechanism of Tc(Ⅶ) on SiR
4N accords with Langmuir isotherm, which means a monolayer adsorption. According to Clausius-Claperon equation, the adsorption heat Δ
H is estimated to be -18.48kJ/mol. When the concentration of nitric acid is 0.50 mol/L, the saturated adsorption of Tc(Ⅶ) on dry SiR
4N reaches 0.30 mmol/g at 25℃.
