SEPARATION OF TRACE Tm,Yb,Lu BY MEANS OF“PUSH-PULL”EXTRACTION-CHROMATOGRAPHY WITH N263-α-HiBA SYSTEMWang Wushang;Yang Yusheng;Li Yinming(Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology,P. O. Box 69(17),Xi’an 710024)Abstract:The separation of trace Tm,Yb ,Lu by means of“push-pull”extraction-chromatography with N263-α-HiBA system is studied.The relation between distribution ratio of each rare earth ion and α-HiBA acid ion concentration is obtained.Complete separation of trace Tm,Yb,Lu from each other is accomplished with acidity gradient elution or α-HiBA concentration gradient elution.Keywords: “Push-pull”extraction-chromatography Tm Yb Lu
