Summary
Systematic studies are presented on the cation-exchange behaviour of yttrium on Dowex 50W-X8. HCl, HNO3, H2SO4, NH4Cl, NH4NO3, (NH4)2SO4, CH3COONH4, NaCl, NaNO3, malonic acid, tartaric acid and EDTA were used as eluting agents. Y was separated from a large variety of elements by selective elution or selective adsorption. Thus it was possible to separate it from many common ions such as alkalis, alkaline earths, Bi, Hg, V, Cd, U, In, Co, Ga, Zn, Sc, Fe, Al, Ni, and Ce by selective elution. It was separated from Ti, Zr, Hf, and Sb by selective sorption in citrate media and from Cr, Tl, Pb, and Th by gradient elution.
