Abstract
Dynamic light scattering (DLS) studies were carried out to investigate the aggregation behavior of 1.1M solutions of tributyl phosphate (TBP), N,N-dihexyl octanamide (DHOA) and of N,N-dihexyl decanamide (DHDA) in n-dodecane equilibrated with varying concentrations of nitric acid (0.1–6M) and of Th (10–200g/L). There was a gradual increase in thorium extraction with increased aqueous phase acidities. A significant enhancement in the aggregate sizes was observed with increasing concentration of thorium in the organic phase. The effect of 1-octanol as phase modifier was also investigated on the aggregation behavior of extracted species for TBP system.
