was used in investigations pertaining to the separation of Am 3+ and Eu 3+ from dilute nitric
acid feed solutions by extraction chromatography using XAD-4 as the inert support,
chlorinated dicarbollide as the modifier and 2-nitrophenyloctylether (NPOE) as the diluent.
After carrying out a series of experiments, the optimum composition of the extractant mixture
for the resin was found out to be 0.1 M Et-BTP and 0.025 M CCD in NPOE. Separation factor …
