Abstract

The sorption properties of solid-phase extractants (SPEs) prepared by impregnation of Taunit carbon nanotubes with adducts of diphenyl(dibutylcarbamoylmethyl)phosphine oxide (CMPO) and tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO) in HNO3 solutions were studied. The SPEs exhibit high ability to sorb U(VI), Pu(IV), Np(V), Am(III), and Eu(III) from nitric acid solutions, with good kinetic properties. The impregnation conditions and distribution coefficients of the radionuclides in their recovery from 3 M HNO3 were determined. The possibility of preparing SPEs by Taunit impregnation in HNO3 solutions with adducts of tributyl phosphate (TBP) and N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-dioctylhexylethoxymalonamide (DMDOHEMA) and with Cyphos IL-101 phosphonium ionic liquid was demonstrated.
