A diglycolamide-functionalized task specific ionic liquid (TSIL) for actinide extraction: Solvent extraction, thermodynamics and radiolytic stability studies

Piperidinium based ionic liquid in combination with sulphoxides: Highly efficient solvent systems for the extraction of thorium

“…The D Th values for all the ligands were found to decrease drastically with increase in feed acidity. This can be attributed to the predominance of 'ion exchange' mechanism during the extraction (Ha et al, 2010;Sengupta et al, 2013;Kolarik, 2013). In piperidinium based ionic liquid the D Th values for DISO and DHSO were found to be more only at 0.01 M HNO 3 feed acid concentration while beyond that similar trend was observed as seen in case of imidazolium based ionic liquid.…”

Selective extraction of trivalent actinides using CyMe4BTPhen in the ionic liquid Aliquat-336 nitrate

“…Indeed, some types of ionic liquids proved to show a much higher stability towards ionizing radiation. 31,32 The low vapour pressure of ionic liquids renders them safer to use than the more common aliphatic diluents. In addition, the high intrinsic electrical conductivity of ionic liquids can prevent the build-up of static charge in the organic solvent, a phenomenon sometimes encountered when using molecular diluents for solvent extraction processes, which can result in re.…”

Diglycolamide-Based Solvent Systems in Room Temperature Ionic Liquids for Actinide Ion Extraction: A Review

“…There are a number of TSILs prepared and evaluated for metal ion extraction, some of those for actinide ion extraction as well. Mohapatra et al [50,51] reported the first time synthesis and use of DGAfunctionalized TSILs (DGA-TSIL, Figure 2) with PF 6 -and Tf 2 N -anions for the extraction of the actinide ions such as Am 3þ , UO 2 2þ , Pu 4þ , etc. and the results were particularly interesting due to the fact that very high D values were obtained for Am 3þ and Pu 4þ .…”
