title: Adsorption of cations from formic acid solutions on strong acid cation-exchange resin. Separation of zirconium from thorium and from gallium.
abstract: The adsorption of Pb(II), Cu(II), Bi(III), Cd(II), Mn(II), Co(II), Ga(III), Y(III), Zr(IV) and Th(IV) from aqueous solutions of formic acid on cation-exchanger Dowex 50W-X8 has been studied. Electrophoretic measurements have also been made. Possible separations are suggested and discussed. Zirconium may be quantitatively separated from thorium and from gallium.
