Description

242Cm was separated from JRR-1 irradiated 241Am. The separation was carried out at room temperature by the elution with 0.5 M ammonium α-hydroxy isobutyrate of pH 3.68 from the column of 8% cross linked Diaion SK♯1. The flow rate of 1 drop/5 min was found to give a good separation of 242Cm from 241Am. The separation factor was calculated to be 1.49. Radiochemical purity of curium fraction was checked by means of decay curve and α pulse height analyses. (author)
