Abstract

Preparation conditions of composite ion-exchanger based on stannic molybdophosphate (SMP) and poly-acrylamide (PAA) have been described. Batch distribution coefficients for some ions were investigated at 25 °C. Sodium ion exchange capacity and breakthrough curves of cesium and strontium ions have also been determined. The results obtained from the experiments showed that the selectivity of SMP-PAA for cesium and strontium was greater than for other ions. Adsorption amounts of both ions were higher than 99% in demineralized water and their uptake rate were relatively rapid.
