Investigation of the usefulness of NTA, EDTA and DTPA in separation of some platinum metals on cellulose exchangers.
The possibility of using NTA, EDTA and DTPA as complexing agents for separation of some platinum group ions on cellulose ion-exchangers has been investigated. The greatest differences in the affinities of Pd(II) and Pt(IV) toward the cellulose ion-exchangers are obtained in the presence of DPTA, Cellex D (as ion-exchanger) in hydroxide form. The column separation of Pd(II) from Pt(IV), Rh(III) from Pd(II) and of a Rh(III)Pd(II)Pt(IV) mixture can be achieved with DPTA and chloride solutions. The method can be for determination of the components of RhPdPt alloys.
