Abstract

A radiochemical procedure for separation of carrier-free22Na from bulk of Mg is described. The method involves the initial removal of bulk of Mg as Mg(OH)2 by means of ammonia followed by separation of the last traces of Mg by means of extraction with a cationic liquid exchanger, di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (HDEHP) in cyclohexane.
