Description

A LLX procedure for carrier-free separation of the radioisotopes, 47Sc, 48V and 48,49,51Cr, the 40 MeV α-particle activation products of titanium has been developed. Sequential separations of the radionuclides produced in the titanium matrix through the nuclear reactions (α, αpχn), (α, pχn) and α, (χn) have been performed through LLX from aqueous H2SO4 and HClO4 acid media using the liquid cation exchanger, HDEHP, as an extractant. Purity of the carrier-free radiotracers at different stages of their separations has been verified by γ-ray spectrometry. (author)
