Complexation structure and thermodynamic analysis of uranium (VI)/neodymium (III) adsorption by ethylenediamine triacetic acid chelating resin: based on potentiometric titration
摘要
This study explores the coordination of Ethylenediamine Triacetic Acid chelating resin with U(VI)/Nd(III) via potentiometric titration, determining the protonation constants of H₃L and stability constants of H₃L—U(VI)/Nd(III) complexes. Batch experiments confirm complexes like UO₂HL, UO₂L⁻, UO₂(OH)L2⁻, NdHL⁺, and NdL. Fixed H₃L differs from free H₃L; adjacent carboxylic groups may form hydrogen bonds, enhancing lgβ₃. H₃L forms a tridentate coordination with U(VI). The competitive adsorption of U(VI) and Nd(III) within a pH range is calculated and verified. Additionally, U(VI) adsorption in the presence of citric acid is calculated, supporting practical applications.
