Abstract
Recently, a new type of resinous adsorbent has been developed as an effective adsorbent for a number of organic materials. The adsorbent has macro-reticular structure and no ion-exchange capacity.
This paper deals with the adsorption of typical fission products and induced radionuclides on Amberlite XAD-2, with 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) as the organic reagent.
It was found that60Co,59Fe,144Ce,95Zr, and106Ru were transferred to the adsorbent phase from various solutions, when oxinates of the nuclides were formed in the solutions. Without oxine, most of the nuclides were not adsorbed on the adsorbent.137Cs and85Sr were not adsorbed on XAD-2 with or without oxine.
