Abstract

The separation of Sc(III) from Y(III), La(III) and Yb(III) in [C~8~mim][PF~6~] containing Cyanex 925 has been investigated, and is reported in this paper. A cation exchange mechanism of Sc(III) in [C~8~mim][PF~6~] and Cyanex 925 is proposed by study of the influence of anionic and cationic species on the extraction. The coefficient of the equilibrium equation of Sc(III) was confirmed by slope analysis of log D~Sc~ vs log [Cyanex 925], and the loading capacity also confirmed the stoichiometry of Cyanex 925 to Sc(III) was close to 3:1. Infrared data for Cyanex 925 saturated with Sc(III) in [C~8~mim][PF~6~] indicated strong interaction between PO of Cyanex 925 and Sc(III). In addition, the relationship between log D~Sc~ and temperature showed that temperature had little influence on the extraction process, and the resulting thermodynamic parameters indicated that an exothermic process was involved.
