우라늄(VI)의 분리회수를 위한 수지합성과 흡착특성에 관한 연구

A Study on Resin Synthesis and Adsorption Characteristics for Separation and Recovery of U(VI)

chloromethylated syrene, 1,4-divinylbenzene과 동공의 크기를 달리한 여러 가지 거대고리 화합물을 개시제로 하여 공중합법에 의하여 1%, 2%, 5%, 및 10%의 다리결합도를 가진 새로운 이온교환수지를 합성한 후 이 수지들을 에탄올 매질에서 열분석, pH, 시간, 다리결합도, 용매 등에 대하여 흡착특성 및 선택성을 살펴 보았다. 이 수지들은 강산, 강염기 및 열에 대해서 안정하였으며, pH 4.0 이상에서는 $UO_2^{+2}$이온에 대한 겉보기용량이 가장 크게 나타났고 U(VI)금속이온은 Ce(III)금속이온에 대하여 선택성을 보였다.

Several new ion exchange resins have been synthesized from chloromethyl styrene-1, 4-di-vinylbenzene with 1%, 2%, 5% and 10%-crosslinking and macrocyclic ligands of cryptand type by interpolymerization method. The adsorption characteristics and the pH, time, solvents and concentration dependence of the adsorption of metal ions by this resin were studied. The correlation between the separation characteristics of uranium and transition metal on the resins and the stability constants of complexes with macrocyclic ligands have been examined. The resins were very stable in both acidic and basic media and had good resistance to heat at $280^{\circ}C$. The $UO_2^{2+}$ aqueous solution was not adsorbed on the resins below pH 3.0, but the power of adsorption of $UO_2^{2+}$ increased rapidly above pH 4.0. The optimum equilibrium time for adsorption of metallic ions was twenty minutes and adsorptive power decreased in proportion to crosslinking size of the resins and order of dielectric constants of solvents used and the selective sequence for metal cations is in the order of $UO_2^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ and $Ce^{3+}$ .
