Description

In the temperature range 10-65 deg C effect of temperature on scandium extraction from sulfuric acid solutions (0.1-8 mol'l) by di-2-ethylhexylphosphoric acid, poly-2-ethylhexylphosphonitrilic acid and tributylphosphate has been studied. It is established that scandium extraction in this system in wide pH range with temperature growth usually decreases or isooccompanied by minimal thermal effects (-Δ = 0-4.8 kcal/mol). Only in low acidic region (∼ 0.1 mol/l H2SO4) certain increase of scandium distribution coefficients with temperature growth takes place; it relates with dominant effect of cation exchange extraction of scandium in the given conditions. 8 refs.; 5 tabs
