Development and optimization of high-performance extraction chromatography method for separation of rare earth elements
The effectiveness of commonly used extractants for chromatographic separation of rare earth elements (REEs) was compared. Columns loaded with similar molar concentrations of tributyl phosphate (TBP), di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (HDEHP), and N-Methyl-N, N, N-tri-octyl-ammonium chloride (Aliquat-336), with mineral acid as eluent were evaluated. Retention factors were determined, and separation efficiency was assessed based on the resolution data of the REEs acquired under the same elution conditions for each column. HDEHP demonstrated the best separation efficiency for the entire REE series (mean Rs = 2.76), followed by TBP (mean Rs = 1.52), while Aliquat-336 exhibited the lowest performance (mean Rs = 1.42). The HDEHP-coated column was then used to optimize the extraction chromatographic separation of the REEs. The primary challenge was to completely elute the heavy REEs (Tb – Lu) while maintaining adequate separation of the light REEs (La – Gd) within a reasonably short time. The stepwise gradient elution procedure improved the resolution between adjacent REEs, allowing the complete separation of the entire REE series within 25 minutes. Better separation efficiency for light REEs was achieved at higher column temperatures and a mobile phase flow rate of 1.5 mL/min in the tested domain of 20–60 °C, and 0.5–2.0 mL/min, respectively, resulting in plate heights (H) ranging from 0.011 to 0.027 mm.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chromatography A provides a forum for the publication of original research and critical reviews on all aspects of fundamental and applied separation science. The scope of the journal includes chromatography and related techniques, electromigration techniques (e.g. electrophoresis, electrochromatography), hyphenated and other multi-dimensional techniques, sample preparation, and detection methods such as mass spectrometry. Contributions consist mainly of research papers dealing with the theory of separation methods, instrumental developments and analytical and preparative applications of general interest.
