Description

Uranium(VI) was quantitatively extracted from 6 to 8M hydrochloric acid with 0.02M DC-18-crown-6 in chloroform. It was stripped from the organic phase with 0.5M hydrochloric acid and determined as its Arsenazo-III complex at 665 nm. Uranium(VI) was separated from several elements such as thorium, zirconium, scandium, yttrium, thallium and tin in complex mixtures. The method was extended for analysis of uranium in monazite and rock sample. (author) 11 refs.; 6 tabs
