In the affinity series La 3+ is characterised as the lowest affinity in comparison with other rare earth elements, which indicates possibility of purification of La 3+ from all remaining lanthanides as well as Pr 3+ in the macro-micro systems by the frontal analysis technique. In the investigations strongly basic gel anion-exchangers Dowex 1×8 (type 1) and Dowex 2×8 (type 2) and strongly basic and weakly basic macroporous anion-exchangers Dowex MSA-1 and Dowex MWA 1 were used. Macroporous ion-exchangers have a sponge-like matrix which contains pores larger than molecules in size and the exchange of large ions is faster. The studies indicate that both the gel and macroporous anion-exchangers are useful for purification of La 3+ from Pr 3+ complexes with iminodiacetic acid.展开更多

With the addition of LPC, an additional rod-like Al11La3 phase was deposited in the alloy. LPC greatly improves the tensile strength of cast Mg-Al alloys but negatively affects the elongation of cast alloys above 473 K. Cast alloys are strengthened by both precipitation strengthening and dispersion strengthening at ambient temperature. When the temperature exceeds 473 K, only the dispersion operates as a strengthening mechanism.展开更多

The methyl orange(MO)aqueous solution was selected as a simulated wastewater. The ordered microstructural TiO_2-NTs substrate was synthesized by an electrochemical method to obtain large specific surface area and high space utilization. The phase structure, electrode surface morphology and electrochemical properties of electrodes were characterized by XRD, SEM and electrochemical technology, respectively. The results showed that praseodymium oxide was successfully doped into the SnO_2-Sb film by CV method. Due to the doped Pr, the oxygen evolution potential increased from 2.25 V to 2.40 V. The degradation of MO was investigated by UV-vis. The C_t /C_0(φ)was studied as a function to obtain the optimal parameters, such as the amount of doped Pr, current density and initial dye concentration. In addition, the degradation process followed pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics and the rate constant was 0.0993 min^(-1). The result indicated that the introduction of Pr reduced the formation of oxygen vacancies or enhanced the formation of adsorbed hydroxyl radical groups on the surface, thus leading to better activity and stability.展开更多

The effect of equilibrium of aqueous acidity on extraction of Pr3+ was discussed. The effect of extractant concentraction,different diluents,equilibrium time and acetate ion concentration on extraction reaction were also studied. With a method of double-logarithmic slope,composition of the extracted species on 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester and 8-Hydroxyquinoline was derived. The result shows that the synergistic extraction system not only overcomes emulsification of 8-Hydroxyquinoline,but also shows perfect capacity of synergistic extraction. The largest synergistic enhancement factor can be calculated to be 5.49 at pH 3.6 for Pr3+.展开更多
