Summary
The extraction behaviour of Co and Ni chlorides withAliquat 336-TBP andAliquat 336-TOPO (Aliquat 336: tri-n-octylmethylammonium chloride,TBP: tri-n-butylphosphate,TOPO: tri-n-octylphosphine oxide) was investigated. The synergistic action ofTOPO in the extraction of Co and Ni withAliquat 336 manifested itself in an increase of the distribution ratio of Co with increasing ofTOPO concentration at constantAliquat 336 concentration without deterioration of the separation factor Co/Ni which still was above 200. Mixed complexes of the general formulaMeCl2+mAmBn (Me: Co or Ni,A:Aliquat 336, A:TBP orTOPO) withm ranging from 2 to 5 andn from 1 to 3 were present in the organic phase of both systems. The coexistence of several synergistic Co/Ni species in the equilibrium organic phase is reported for the first time.
Zusammenfassung
Das Extraktionsverhalten von Kobalt- und Nickelchloriden mitAliquat 336-TBP undAliquat 336-TOPO (Aliquat 336: Tri-n-octylmethylammoniumchlorid,TBP: Tri-n-butylphosphat,TOPO: Tri-n-octylphosphinoxid) wurde untersucht. Die synergistische Wirkung vonTOPO bei der Extraktion von Co und Ni mitAliquat 336 manifestiert sich in einer Erhöhung des Verteilungsverhältnisses von Co mit steigenderTOPO-Konzentration, ohne daß dadurch der Co/Ni-Trennfaktor verschlechtert wird (> 200). Für beide Systeme konnten in der organischen Phase gemischte Komplexe der allgemeinen FormelMeCl2+m A mBn nachgewiesen werden (Me: Co oder Ni,A:Aliquat 336,B:TBP orderTOPO,m : 2–5,n: 1–3). Zum ersten Mal wird über die Koexistenz verschiedener synergistischer Co/Ni-Spezies in der organischen Phase im Gleichgewicht berichtet.
