Abstract

Separation possibilities of 126Sn with a new extraction-chromatographic material TBP Resin were studied. Suitable conditions for tin separation were determined in hydrochloric acid medium. 126Sn was concentrated on TBP resin from 6 mol L−1 HCl and was eluted with 0.1 mol L−1 HCl. A purification step to remove 137Cs with AMP-PAN column was necessary to obtain sufficiently purified samples which were directly measured with gamma spectrometry for 126Sn activity. Separation of 126Sn from a raw sludge sample was done according to proposed procedure, 126Sn was detected and its activity was determined.
