Description

A nearly ideal displacement chromatography has been realized with an eluent of MgSO4 and H2SO4 in the study of uranium isotope separation by means of cation exchange chroma-tography using uranous sulfate complexes. Uranium-235 was enriched at the end of the chromatogram and 238U was enriched at the front. Two long distance displacement ex-periments have been carried out, keeping an isotopic plateau region on the chromatogram. Consequently, good accumulation of the isotopic fractionation based on uranous-sulfate com-plex formation reactions obtained. The separation coefficient ε of this system was estimated to be about 5×10-5.
