TLDR
In this paper, the effect of the diluent using polar and nonpolar solvents in the extraction of copper(II) is discussed and the extraction constants are evaluated for different diluents.
Abstract
The liquid–liquid extraction of copper(II) from sulfate medium with di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (D2EHPA, HL) at 25°C is studied with the following parameters: pH, concentration of the extractant, and the nature of diluent. The effect of the diluent using polar and nonpolar solvents in the extraction of copper(II) is discussed. The extracted copper(II) species were CuL2 in 1-octanol and methyl isobutyl ketone and CuL2 · 2HL in toluene, carbon tetrachloride, and cyclohexane. The extraction constants are evaluated for different diluents.

Equilibrium studies of the extraction of divalent metals from nitrate media with di-(2ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the distribution data for di-(2ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HPEHP) between n-heptane and 0.1 mol/dm3 (Na, H)NO3 to determine the equilibrium constants of HDEHP such as the dimerization, the distribution and the acid dissociation constant.
