Description

Complex formation by tetravalent plutonium at I = 2 and [H+] = 2 M, has been studied by solvent extraction methods using vanadium(V) to eliminate the possibility of a change in the oxidation state of PU(IV) during the experiment or complexing of Pu(IV) by the holding oxidant itself. Sulphate complexing of Pu(IV) has been studied using three extractants, viz. thenoyltrifluoroacetone, dinoylnaphthalene sulphonic acid and tri-n-butylphosphate, and nitrate, chloride and fluoride complexing of Pu(IV) has been studied using the thenoyltrifluoroacetone extraction method.
