Abstract

Rare earth elements(REE) were separated by solvent extraction with tri-n-butyl phosphate(TBP) and $NaNO_3$, followed by back extraction with water. The method was applied to the determination of REE to circumvent the spectral interferences of ICP-AES analysis. The effects of the $NaNO_3$ concentration and the addition of hydrophobic solvents on the extraction efficiencies were investigated. Increases of the $NaNO_3$ concentration enhanced the extraction efficiencies of REE, and more than 95% recoveries were obtained at 5M of $NaNO_3$ concentration. On the other hand, addition of hydrophobic solvents lowered the extraction efficiencies. The method was applied to determine the REE in the monazite sample. But the precisions of the analytical results were more than 20%.

희토류원소를 tri-n-butyl phospate와 질산염을 이용하여 용매추출하고 물로 역추출하여, 희토류원소의 군분리 효율을 조사하고 ICP-AES에서 스펙트럼의 방해영향이 없는 분석을 시도하였다. 용매추출시 분배계수를 증가시키기 위하여 $NaNO_3$ 농도에 따른 영향을 조사하고, 소수성 용매의 첨가시 추출효율을 조사하였다. $NaNO_3$ 농도가 증가할수록 추출효율은 증가하며, 5M 이상에서 추출효율이 95% 이상으로 높았다. 반면에 소수성용매의 첨가는 추출효율을 감소시켰다. 이 방법을 모나자이트 중 희토류원소의 분석에 이용하였으나 분석결과의 정밀도가 20% 이상으로 높아 분석에 이용하기에는 어려움이 있었다.
