Title: BEHAVIOR OF MICROQUANTITIES OF RADIOELEMENTS IN DILUTE SOLUTIONS. BEHAVIOR OF Am IN ION EXCHANGE
Abstract: The sorption of Am/sup 241/ on ion exchange resins in nitric acid solutions (1 to 18 M) was studled. It was found that Am/sup 3+/ is predominant in the solutions up to 1 M. With pH >4 the positive charge is reduced due to hydrolysis. Anion sorption of colloidal americlum reaches 80%, however, cation sorption of colloidal americlum does not occur. Electromigration and sorption in nitric acid solutions indicate the formation of positively charged complexes in 1 to 4 M solutions. Neutral americium complexes are predominant in 4 to 16 M solutions. (R.V.J.)
