Tracer Application in Study of Reaction Kinetics using Duolite ARA-9366B and Duolite A-638
Abstract: Radiotracer isotopes 131I and 82Br were used to study the iodide and bromide ion-isotopic exchange reactions taking place in two anion exchange resins Duolite ARA-9366B (nuclear grade) and Duolite A-638 (non-nuclear grade) under different operational parameters like temperature and ionic concentration of exchanging medium. The results of present investigation indicate an existence of strong positive linear co-relationship between amount of ions exchanged and concentration of ionic solution; while existence of …

Thermodynamic Concept to Evaluate the Performance of Organic Base Ion Exchange Resins Purolite NRW-5050 and Indion-870 Using Short-Lived Radioisotopes
Abstract: The present paper deals with application of short-lived radiotracer isotopes to understand the performance of Purolite NRW-5050 (nuclear grade) and Indion-870 (non-nuclear grade) anion exchange resins. The performance evaluation was done based on thermodynamics of iodide and bromide ion-isotopic exchange reactions. It was observed that for Purolite NRW-5050 resins during the bromide ion-isotopic exchange reaction, the enthalpy and energy of activation values calculated were 3287.8 and 5869.3 J.mol-1 respectively, which …
