Phosphate-hydroxyquinoline method for separation and volumetric determination of zirconium

  • Published:
The Soviet Journal of Atomic Energy Aims and scope

Abstract

The proposed method consists of a combination of the well-known phosphate method for separation of zirconium, and determination of zirconium as the hydroxyquinolate. The separation of zirconium hydroxyquinolate from an oxalate medium after solution of the phosphate preccipitate in oxalic acid has been used for the first time. The conditions of separation of zirconium from titanium and thorium in the phosphate precipitation, and from niobium and tantalum in precipitation of the hydroxyquinolate, have been studied. By this method it is possible to separate zirconium in practice from all accompanying elements (except hafnium), and to determine small amounts of zirconium (2–5 mg) by a volumetric method to an accuracy of ± 2–4%.
