Abstract
The competition of water, nitrate ions and solvent for interaction with lanthanide ions has been studied by measuring the absorption spectra of solutions containing suitable combinations of these components. The role of the water in lanthanide nitrate extracts by TBP and by a tri-alkylammonium nitrate solution has also been studied. The following affinity series of ligands and solvents for lanthanide ions has been obtained: DMF>TBP >NO3-∼H2O >EtOH >dioxane.
