Abstract
Separation factors of silver-cadmium and silver-zinc pairs were determined for Amberlite LA-2 and tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) from pure hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulphuric and orthophosphoric acids as well as from their binary mixtures. The separation of cadmium and zinc from macroamounts of silver can be best achieved from ca. 2M H2SO4. There are many other media suitable for the separation of trace silver from cadmium and zinc matrices.
