Synthesis and characterization of the [Te(SCN2H4)4] (SO4)2 complex. Application to the separation of 99Mo from fission products

Description

Thiourea reacts with tellurium-IV ions, in sulfuric medium, to form cationic complex which is strongly retained on cationic ion exchanger. The method was applied to separate 99Mo from 132Te obtained in the fission of 235U since molybdenum does not form such complex and passes throught the cationic exchanger column in the molibdate form. In this paper, the procedure of the tellurium-thiourea complex preparation and its characterization are described. Elemental analysis, ultraviolet and infra-red absorption spectrophotometry as well as thermogravimetry were used to characterize the complex. (author)

Abstract (Portuguese)

A tioureia reage com ions de telurio IV, em meio sulfurico, formando complexo cationico que e fortemente retido em trocador cationico' (resina Dowex-50W-X8, 100-200 mesh). O metodo foi aplicado a separacao de 99Mo do 132Te obtidos na fissao do 235U, uma vez que o molibdenio nao complexa com a tioureia nas mesmas condicoes experimentais, saindo no efluente na forma de molibdato. No presente trabalho descrece-se o procedimento para a preparacao do referido complexo telurio-tioureia bem como sua caracterizacao por meio de analise elementar, espectrometria de absorcao na regiao do ultravioleta e do infrevermelho, e tambem por termogravimetria.
