Specific Separation of Gallium, Gold, and Magnesium, and Separation of Be-AI-Ga on Stannic Molybdate Papers

TLDR: Chromatography of 47 cations in 11 solvent systems has been performed on stannic molybdate ion exchange papers as discussed by the authors, and some difficult separations, e.g., Rb from Cs, Al-Be-Ga, and Tl-In, have been achieved.

Abstract: Chromatography of 47 cations in 11 solvent systems has been performed on stannic molybdate ion exchange papers. Some difficult separations, e.g., Rb from Cs, Al-Be-Ga, and Tl-In, and specific separations of Ga, Au and Mg from numerous metal ions, have been achieved. R F values of some common metal ions on these papers have been compared with R F values of these cations on stannic tungstate and stannic phosphate papers. The preparation of papers is easy and the results are reproducible.
