    INTRODUCTION CYANEX 272 extractant has proven to be the reagent of choice for the separation of cobalt from nickel from both sulfate and chloride media. It is now being used to produce a major portion of the world's cobalt. Since the active component of CYANEX 272 extractant is a phosphinic acid, metals are extracted through a cation exchange mechanism. Although CYANEX 272 extractant is selective for cobalt in the presence of nickel, a variety of other cations can also be extracted depending upon the solution pH. CYANEX 272 extractant is totally miscible with common aromatic and aliphatic diluents, and is extremely stable to both heat and hydrolysis.

    Chemical Structure The active component of CYANEX 272 extractant is bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid. Typical Properties

    Bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid : 85% Appearance : Colourless to light amber liquid Specific Gravity at 24oC : 0.92 Viscosity, Brookfield at 25oC : 142cp 50oC : 37cp Solubility in distilled H2O at pH 2.6 : 16 g/ml pH 3.7 : 38g/mL Boiling Point : >300oC Pour Point : -32oC Flash Point, closed cup : >108oC Specific Heat @ 52oC : 0.48 cal/gm/oC Thermal Conductivity : 2.7 x 10-4 cal/cm/sec/oC Stability The hydrolytic stability of CYANEX 272 extractant was examined in several tests which involved equilibrating the reagent with aqueous cobalt-nickel sulfate solutions at pH 5 and 50oC. The experimental procedure involved contacting the aqueous and organic phases in a stirred vessel for one week and then stripping the organic phase with sulfuric acid. The solvent was subsequently returned to the vessel for a further one week contact with a fresh aqueous solution. The procedure was repeated for a total contact time of four weeks. Analysis by titration and 31P NMR failed to detect any degradation of the reagent, nor were any statistically significant changes in cobalt-nickel selectivity observed. Furthermore, no degradation has been detected in plants which have been operating continuously for as long as ten years.

    Solubility Losses Losses of CYANEX 272 extractant by distribution to aqueous cobalt-nickel sulfate solutions were determined in a number of shake-out tests. The effect of two variables, pH and aqueous phase salt concentration, was studied. Aliquots of the organic and aqueous phases were contacted for 5 minutes at 50oC and A/O = 1. After coalesence, the aqueous phases were analyzed for CYANEX 272 extractant using a gas chromatographic procedure. The solvent was composed of 12 v/o CYANEX 272 extractant in Kermac* 470B diluent. Ammonium hydroxide was used for pH adjustment. The results of the extractant solubility (truly dissolved data) are given below.

    Aqueous Composition (g/l) CYANEX 272 Ni Co Total Salt Equilibrium Extractant Conc. pH Solubility (g/ml)

    100 2 300 3-5 0.5-1.5 25 25 133 4.6 2 5.3 2 6.2 2 5 5 27 4.6 3 5.5 8 6.5 25

    The solubility losses follow the general pattern expected of an acidic extractant. Distribution to the aqueous phase was found to be proportional to pH and inversely proportional to salt concentration. As can be seen, the losses are not excessive and this is corroborated by operating plant experience where total annual losses from both solubility and entrainment are approximately 10-15% of the solvent inventory. Toxicity The acute oral (rat) and acute dermal (rabbit) LD50 values for CYANEX 272 extractant are >3.5 g/kg and >2.0 g/kg, respectively. The product produced only limited to mild eye and ski irritation during primary irritation studies with rabbits. The acute LC50, (96 hr) for the bluegill sunfish and rainbow trout are 46 mg/L and 22 mg/L, respectively. When CYANEX 272 extractant was assayed for mutagenic potential in the Ames Salmonella Test, it was determined to be non-mutagenic. CYANEX 272 extractant is considered as a non-toxic material. * A product of Kerr McGee Refining Corp.

    Calcium Rejection Unlike other organophosphorus cobalt extractants, CYANEX 272 extractant will extract cobalt preferentially to calcium when both are present in the same feed stream. This performance characteristic is demonstrated in Table 3 and Figure 1.

    Cobalt Extraction Isotherm Procedural details and results of our extraction studies are given in Table 4.

Cobalt Loading Loading studies were carried out at 50'C and pH 6.0 0. 1. The pH was controlled by the addition of ammonia. Other details and results are shown in Table 5.

    TABLE 5 Solvent (v/o) : 30% CYANEX 272 extractant in Kermac 470B diluent Aqueous (g/l) : 10 Co as sulfate Theoretical Maximum (g/l) : Approximately 24 Contact Time : 5 minutes

    *At this loading the solvent was judged to be too viscous for practical use. The 15 g/l solvent did not exhibit this viscosity problem. The maximum practical loading for the conditions cited is probably about 65-75 % of theoretical. (39) This would correspond to a CYANEX 272 extractant:cobalt ratio of 6:2.

    It should be noted that the loading capacity of CYANEX 272 extractant will vary depending upon several parameters, notably pH, temperature, and extractant concentration, and may be more or less than the figure cited. For example, with a 15% CYANEX 272 extractant solution at 50oC and pH 5-5 the solvent can be loaded to 100% of the theoretical maximum while remaining sufficiently mobile for practical use. Scrubbing Isotherm As can be seen from the results in Table 6, even if a high quantity of nickel is co-extracted with the cobalt, it can be successfully scrubbed from the loaded solvent.

Substituting p-nonylphenol or TBP for the isodecanol essentially eliminated this problem. Tables 7 and 8 show stripping isotherms obtained with a p-nonylphenol modified solvent.

    *The phosphinic acid contained in the solvent was converted 70% to the ammonium salt by reaction with concentrated ammonium hydroxide solution (S.G. = 0.88). A phase modifier was used since converting more than 50% of the free acid to a salt (NH4+ or Na+) usually requires a modifier to prevent third phase formation.

    Effect of Process Variables on Cobalt-Nickel Separation Factor

    The effect of pH, temperature and diluent aromaticity on the cobalt-nickel separation factor in sulfate solutions was measured in a series of statistically designed tests and the data fitted to the following mathematical model: log10S = 1.8827 + 0.0332T + 0.01249A + 0.0033PT - 0.002151PA - 0.0003405T2 Where: S = Co-Ni Separation Factor T = Temperature (oC) A = % Aromatics in diluent P = Equilibrium pH

    The effect of these process variables on the separation factor is shown in Tables 9 through 11.

    OTHER POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS Diluent Oxidation and Prevention Hydrocarbon diluents oxidize readily to carboxylic acids in the presence of a cobalt (Co2+) catalyst (24,90). The formation of carboxylic acids, which are active nickel extractants, can seriously reduce the cobalt-nickel selectivity obtained with CYANEX 272 extractant. However, inhibitors such as BHT can be used to prevent this oxidation. Plants following this practice have run for many years without loss of selectivity. Recovery from Ammoniacal Solutions CYANEX 272 extractant can be used to recover cobalt from ammoniacal as well as acidic solutions. The data in Table 13 show that it outperforms other organophosphorus extractants.

    Although CYANEX 272 extractant is designed primarily for cobalt-nickel separations, the data in Tables 14 and 15, and Figures 3 and 4 show that it will extract a variety of metal cations and indicate its potential for other selective separations.

    ANALYTICAL METHODS Analysis for Active Component in CYANEX 272 Extractant in Organic Solvents by Titration The active component of CYANEX 272 extractant is bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid. Its concentration in an organic solvent is determined by titration with standard caustic solution.

    The extractant contains small quantities of a dibasic impurity (2,4,4-trimethylpentyl phosphonic acid) which also titrates with caustic.

    The endpoints are detected potentiometrically. Apparatus pH meter Magnetic stirrer Standard laboratory glassware Reagents 75 v/o 2-propanol in distilled water 0.1N Standard NaOH solution in 75 v/o 2-propanol 100 g/l H2SO4 All reagents are AR grade. Procedure 1. Contact approximately 50 ml of the solvent to be analyzed

    with 50 ml of 100 g/l H2SO4 for 5 minutes at 50oC. Separate the phases and allow to stand for 15-30 minutes. Centrifuge the solvent or filter through PS paper* to remove entrained aqueous.

    2. To prepare the analyte solution, pipette a 25 ml aliquot of

    the solvent and dilute to 200 ml in a volumetric flask with the appropriate diluent (Escaid**, Kermac*** etc.). Alternatively, the 75 v/o solution of 2-propanol may be used for volume make-up.

    3. Pipette 25 ml of the analyte solution into a 150 ad tall-form

    beaker. Dilute to approximately 50 ml with the 2-propanol solution. Insert the pH electrodes and begin stirring.

    * Phase separation paper available from Whatman Inc., Clifton, NJ. ** A product of Exxon Chemical Co., USA *** A product of Kerr McGee Refining Corp.

    4. Note the initial pH and begin to titrate with 0.1N NaOH. Record the pH as a function of the volume of NaOH added. Three endpoints should be observed. As each endpoint is approached, the incremental addition of NaOH should be reduced to 0.1 ml to facilitate calculation of the titer by the method of second differences.

    Calculation A typical potentiometric curve is as follows:

    The titer T1 corresponds to the neutralization of sulfuric acid dissolved in the solvent. T2 represents the neutralization of the phosphinic acid plus the reaction of the first of two replaceable hydrogen ions associated with the phosphonic acid. The phosphonic acid is totally neutralized at T3. 0.1N NaOH First Second

When all three titers are known, the concentration of bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid may be determined. bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid (g/1) = [T2 (T3 T2) T1] x N(NaOH) x 290 x 1000 1000 x 25 x 25 200 Similarly the concentration of the phosphonic acid and dissolved sulfuric acid may also be calculated. 2,4,4-trimethylpentyl phosphonic acid (g/1) = T2 T2 x N(NaOH) x 194 x 1000 1000 x 25 x 25 200 H2SO4 (g/l) = T1 x 49 x N(NaOH) x 1000 1000 x 25 x 25 200 NOTES 1. A minimum net titer, i.e. [T2 (T3 T2) T1], of 10 ml is

    recommended to obtain reproducible results. In this procedure, 10 ml of 01N NaOH is equivalent to approximately 100 g/l concentration of phosphinic acid. Where necessary, the size of the aliquots and dilutions may be varied to ensure a sufficient volume of titrant is consumed.

    2. Approximate pH's corresponding to the T1, T2 and T3

    endpoints are 4, 9 and 11, respectively. However these values may vary depending upon the composition of the solvent. After gaining experience with a system, the NaOH may be added rapidly until the particular endpoint pH is approached and then added in 0.1 ml increments to define the point of inflexion in the curve.

    3. The concentrations of sulfuric and phosphonic acids in the

    solvent are usually small and these endpoints may not be observed. In this case T1 and T3 should be assigned a value of zero in the calculations. Typically, T1 and T3 - T2) will be < 0.2 and < 0.1 ml of 0.1N NaOH, respectively, corresponding to

    Analysis for Active Component in CYANEX 272 Extractant in Aqueous Solutions by Gas Chromatography The concentration of the active component, bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid in water is determined by gas chromatography of its methylated derivative. Procedure 1. Transfer approximately 1 L of the aqueous solution into a plastic container and place it in a water bath set for 45oC for a few hours. 2. Remove the solution from the water bath and allow to cool to room temperature. 3. From the bottom of the plastic container, dispense 600 g of the solution into a 1 L separatory funnel. 4. Add to the solution 5 mL of concentrated sulphuric acid, 50 mL of toluene and approximately 100 g of sodium chloride. 5. Separate both aqueous and organic phases. 6. Pipette a 1000 L aliquot of the organic phase and transfer it into a HP autosampler vial. Add 200 L of Methyl-8 Concentrate. 7. Prepare standard solutions of CYANEX 272 extractant in toluene. 8. Pipette a 1000 L aliquot of the standard solutions and transfer it into a HP autosampler vial. Add 200 L of Methyl-8 Concentrate. 9. Analyze the methylated sample and standard solutions by gas chromatography. The chromatographic conditions are identical to those previously described in the section Analysis for Active Component in CYANEX 272 Extractant in Organic Solvents by Gas Chromatography, except the volume injected by the GC autosampler is 1.0 L.
