Abstract

Extraction of Tm(III), from thiocyanate media, by different sulfoxides (R2SO) has revealed that the extractable complex is Tm(SCN)3·4 R2SO. When mixtures of DPSO and HTTA are used for the extraction of Tm(III) from thiocyanate or perchlorate media, synergistic enhancement of the extraction of Tm(III) results. The complexes responsible for the enhanced extraction are Tm(TTA)3·DPSO and Tm(TTA)3·2 DPSO when perchlorate media were employed for the extraction and Tm(SCN)(TTA)2·2 DPSO and Tm(SCN)2(TTA)·3 DPSO, in addition to the above two when a thiocyanate medium was employed for the extraction. Values of equilibrium constants for some equilibria encountered in the extraction of Am(III) and Tm(III) by mixtures of DPSO and HTTA are given.
