Abstract
Two kinds of crystalline zirconium phosphate, α- and γ-ZrP were prepared by direct method, and characterized by means of X-ray powder diffractometry, thermogravimetric analysis and pH titration. The total exchange capacity of α-ZrP and γ-ZrP for Na+ ions determined by pH titration was 8.80 mmol/(g Zr(HPO4)2·6H2O) and 3.80 mmol/(g NH4ZrH(PO4)2·H2O), respectively. The thermodynamic equilibrium constant of exchange reactions
on α-ZrP and
on γ-ZrP at 25.0°C is 2.5 and 1.1, respectively. Although UO 2+2 in solution is more preferred by α-ZrP than by γ-ZrP, the selectivity of α-ZrP for UO 2+2 decreases with decreasing pH value while less effect of pH on the amount of UO 2+2 ions exchanged to γ-ZrP has been found. It is also interesting to find out that both H+ and NH +4 ions in γ-ZrP can be replaced by UO 2+2 ions existed in concentrated solution.
