A STUDY OF THE KINETICS OF URANYL SULFATE EXCHANGE WITH A STRONG BASE ANION RESIN

摘要

A study of uranyl sulfate anion exchange rates with a strong base resin, Dowex 21K, indicated that essentially all of the uranium in the resin behaved as a single anion independent of individual species in solution. The rates at which uranyl sulfate loaded on sulfate or chloride-equilibrated resin could be predicted reasonably accurately from the self-diffusion coefficients of the ions involved provided the uranium ion had a charge of -2.
