Synergistic extraction of cerium(IV) from sulfuric acid medium using mixture of 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono 2-ethylhexyl ester(HEH/EHP, HL) and Di-(2-ethyl hexyl) phosphoric acid(HDEHP, HA) as extractant...Synergistic extraction of cerium(IV) from sulfuric acid medium using mixture of 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono 2-ethylhexyl ester(HEH/EHP, HL) and Di-(2-ethyl hexyl) phosphoric acid(HDEHP, HA) as extractant was investigated.The results indicated that the maximum synergistic enhancement coefficients were obtained at the mole fraction of HEH/EHP=0.6, and cerium(IV) was extracted into organic phase in the form of Ce(SO4)0.5HL2A2.A cation exchange mechanism was proposed for the synergistic extraction of Ce(IV).The equilibrium constants and thermodynamic functions such as △G, △H, and △S were determined in the extraction of Ce(IV) from sulfuric medium using mixture of HEH/EHP and HDEHP.展开更多
