Abstract

Separation factor for $^6Li$ and $^7Li$ has been determined using ion exchange resin having 1,7,13-trioxa-4,10,16-triazacyclooctadecane ($N_3O_3$) as an anchor group. The ion exchange capacity of the $N_3O_3$ ion exchanger was 2.0 meq/g dry resin. The lighter isotope, $^6Li$, is concentrated in the fluid phase, while the heavier isotope, $^7Li$, is enriched in the resin phase. By column chromatography [0.3 cm(I.D)${\times}$30 cm (height)] using 3.0 M ammonium chloride solution as an eluent, single separation factor, ${\alpha}$, 1.018, i.e. $(^7Li/^6Li)_{resin}/(^7Li/^6Li)_{fluid}$ was obtained by the Glueckauf theory from the elution curve and isotope ratios.
