Abstract

Synergistic extraction of U(VI) from 0·3 N HCl was studied, using combinations of a monoacidic phosphate or phosphonate ester (the cheating agent) with a neutral organophosphorus compound (the synergist) at varying concentrations in benzene or cyclohexane. A correlation was found between the acid strength of the chelating agent and its performance in synergistic extraction. From the antisynergistic slope and the concentration of neutral synergist yielding the maximum distribution ratio, the formula of the extracted species and the constants governing the extraction equilibrium are derived.
