Abstract

Abstract The Zn(II) extraction was made from its acidic thiocyanate solution, using polyethylene glycol and its mono(alkylphenyl) ether as extractants. The effects of the number of oxyethylene groups (–O–CH2–CH2–) per molecule and of the kind of the counter cation of thiocyanate on the extractability are described, together with some other factors affecting the Zn(II) extraction.
