Abstract

The cloud-point extraction (CPE) of Sb(V) with pyrogallol (H₃PG) was studied using Triton^®X-100 as a nonionic surfactant in sulfuric acid solutions. The phase separation of a 2% (v/v) Triton X-100 solution was studied with respect to the following parameters: H₃PG and sulfuric acid concentrations, temperature, and heating time. The cloud point of the surfactant solution increased with an increase in the sulfuric-acid concentration, while it decreased with an increase in the H₃PG concentration. The volume of the surfactant-rich phase after heating also decreased with the increase in the H₃PG concentration. Consequently, the dehydration of the extractive phase, or the aggregation of micelles effectively occurred in the presence of H₃PG. On the basis of such phase separation behavior, the CPE of Sb(V) was investigated using 2% (v/v) Triton X-100. More than 92% of Sb(V) was extracted to the surfactant-rich phase with 0.15 mol L⁻¹ H₃PG in 0.9 mol L⁻¹ sulfuric acid by heating for 60 min at 70°C; a concentration factor of 20 was achieved. The Sb(V) species extracted was investigated by ESI-MS, and was found to be an ion-association complex, (H₃O · </sub>n</sub>Triton X-100) · Sb(HPG)₃.
