Abstract
A method for the separation of carrier-free vanadium from scandium and bulk amount of titanium has been developed. Vanadium has been produced through the reactionnatTi(d,n)48,49V with 8 MeV deuterons from the Variable Energy Cyclotron, Calcutta. The separation is performed with Dowex 1×8, 50–100 mesh fluoride from anion exchange resin which retains all the scandium and titanium with 4.5M hydrofluoric acid as eluent, while vanadium(V) is easily eluted. The chemical yield of vanadium was >85%.
