Abstract

Separation of thorium from uranium by the classical oxalic acid method is not satisfactory in that the ignited oxide is slightly coloured. m-Nitrobenaoic acid and o-chlorobenzoic acid are shown to give highly satisfactory results in the presence of 50 to 60 times of uranium in a second precipitation.
