Abstract: Ideal conditions for the substoichiometric solvent extraction and radiochemical separation of Co(II) from other elements with 2-mercaptobenzimidazole into nitrobenzene have been established. The effects of various parameters such as pH, time of equilibration, solvents, cation and anion interferences have been studied. The stoichiometry of metal to reagent has been evaluated.
Key words: substoichiometric solvent extraction, 2-mercaptobenzimidazole, Co(II), nitrobenzene
