Two phosphorylcarboxylic acids,3-((bis(2-ethylhexyloxy))phosphoryl)propanoic acid(PPA) and 3-((bis(2-ethylhexyloxy))phosphoryl)-3-phenylpropanoic acid(PPPA),were synthesized for separating yttrium from other rare eart...Two phosphorylcarboxylic acids,3-((bis(2-ethylhexyloxy))phosphoryl)propanoic acid(PPA) and 3-((bis(2-ethylhexyloxy))phosphoryl)-3-phenylpropanoic acid(PPPA),were synthesized for separating yttrium from other rare earths in the chloride feed of ion-adsorption type rare earth concentrate.The effect of the factors such as pH_(1/2),temperature,saponification degree and phase modifiers was investigated.The separation efficiencies of PPA and PPPA are obviously better than the typical extractants such as sec-octylphenoxy acetic acid(CA-12) and naphthenic acid(NA).The extraction process of rare earths by PPA and PPPA is a cation exchanging reaction,which is similar to those of CA-12 and NA.The loaded rare earths in both PPA and PPPA systems can be effectively back-extracted by 0.5 mol/L HCl or higher concentration.A cascade extraction process for separating yttrium from other rare earths was developed using PPPA as the extractant.The yttrium product with the purity of 97.20 wt% was obtained by 35 stages of extraction and 12 stages of scrubbing.展开更多
