Abstract

Zinc and nickel hexacyanoferrates (II) present a high affinity for223Fr and no retention for223Ra in hydrochloric acid solutions with concentrations greater than 0.5N. Hydrated antimony pentoxide is the best sorbent for223Ra. Incorporated in a composite exchanger, it could be used for decontamination purposes.
