Highlights

Illustration of an idealized extraction chromatographic resin using DGA or LN extractants. By studying the adsorption properties of terbium on these DGA and LN resins, scientists gain insights into these properties for the entire lanthanide series.

Understanding the Adsorption Properties of Terbium for Future Medical Use

Scientists investigate the adsorption, thermodynamics, and kinetic properties of terbium on two popular resins for lanthanide separations: DGA and LN.

Concept of the automated system for remote dissolution of the irradiated bismuth target and astatine recovery in nitric acid media.

Automation of Nuclear Chemistry Processes Leads to More Efficient Production of Astatine for Cancer Therapy

Researchers developed a remotely controlled device for the safe and efficient purification of astatine using liquid phase chemistry.
