Abstract

Abstract Cross sections for the production of 181−184Re isotopes from proton irradiated thin natWO3 target at 20.9, 17.9, 14.9, 11.9 and 8.8 MeV projectile energies have been measured. An acceptable agreement between experimentally obtained data and available literature reports was found. The produced no-carrier-added (NCA) Re radionuclides have been separated from bulk tungsten target by liquid-liquid extraction (LLX) using trioctyl amine (TOA) and di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) dissolved in cyclohexane. A clear separation has been observed at 0.1 M and 1 M TOA with 0.1 M HNO3 concentration. However, by using HDEHP NCA Re radionuclides could not be separated from bulk W target without its contamination.
