Abstract

No-carrier-added (NCA) 71,72As radionuclides were produced by irradiating gallium oxide target with 46 MeV alpha-beam. 71,72As were separated from the target matrix by solid liquid extraction (SLX) using TK200 and DGA-N resins based on trioctylphosphine oxide and N,N,N,N-tetra-n-octyldiglycolamide, respectively. Both the resins selectively extracted Ga at higher acidic concentrations, leaving behind NCA As radioisotopes in the aqueous medium. The best conditions for separation obtained for the resins were at TK200 + 4 M HCl and DGA-N + 4 M HCl with separation factors of 6 × 105 and 1.6 × 106, respectively.
