The role of pH in the separation of Lu and Yb by ion-exchange explained by novel chemical structures of lanthanide complexes
The individual separation of lanthanides is very complex due to the similarities between these elements. Ion-exchange separations with carboxylic acids are widely studied, but the importance of pH is overlooked. This study used citric acid to evaluate Lu and Yb separation with Dowex 50W-X8. The sepa...
