Structure Investigation of La, Y, and Nd Complexes in Solvent Extraction Process with Liquid Phosphine Oxide, Phosphinic Acid, and Amine Extractants

The main challenge in separating REEs through hydrometallurgical processes is their chemical similarities. Despite the literature widely presenting the possibilities for organic extractants, there is a lack of evaluation of the structures formed between the REEs and the extractants. The present stud...
