Abstract
- Potassium nickel hexacyanoferrate(II) matrix was prepared and characterized. Purification of neutron-activation Mo–molybdate(VI) solutes from some residual cross-contaminant radionuclides including Cs, Rb, Sb, Co and Cr was carried out onto small chromatographic columns of the matrix (each of 1.0 g). Gamma-ray spectrometric analysis data showed that the purification process was not affected by either Mo(VI) concentrations (0.13 and 0.02 M Mo) in the feeding solution of 3.5 M NaNO at pH 9.5 or flow rates (0.2 and 5.0 mL/min) at room temperature. Molybdenum(VI) average loss onto the column matrix did not exceed 7.7 × 10 mmol Mo. Except for Cr, the matrix has very high selectivity for Cs, Rb and Sb with ~50% Co elimination. The obtained data were briefly discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
