Abstract

The possibility of the determination of La(III) in the presence of U(VI) and Th(IV), a solid phase with the reagent Arsenazo M, was examined. It was demonstrated that the determination of lanthanum with Arsenazo M in 0.05 M HCl in the presence of 3-, 2-, 1-, and 10-fold amounts of U(VI), Th(IV), Zr(IV), and Ti(IV) is possible after sorption on polyacrylonitrile fiber filled an ion exchanger with iminodiacetate groups (PANV-ANKB-50). For sorption under the optimum conditions at pH 5, the detection limit of lanthanum is 0.01 μg/mL. The method for the determination of lanthanum was verified by the added-found method in the analysis of tap water. To decrease the matrix effect, it is recommended to perform sorption in the analysis of water at pH 2.5. In this case, the detection limit of La(III) is 0.02 μg/mL, RSD < 20%. The time of the analysis of 5 or 6 samples is no longer than 20 min.
