A cloud-point extraction process using micelle of the cationic surfactant CTAB to extract Mo(VI) from aqueous solutions was investigated. The method is based on the color reaction of molybdenum with bromopyrogallol red in the presence of potassium iodide at pH 1.0 glycine/HCl buffer media and micelle-mediated extraction of complex. The optimal extraction and reaction conditions (e.g., surfactant concentration, reagent concentration and effect of time) were studied and the analytical characteristics of the method (e.g., limit of detection, linear range, preconcentration and improvement factors) were obtained. Linearity was obeyed in the range of 0.3-320.0 ng mL(-1) of molybdenum(VI) ion and the detection limit of the method was 0.1 ng mL(-1). The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) and relative error for five replicate measurements of 65.0 ng mL(-1) Mo(VI) were 1.1% and 1.9%, respectively. The interference effect of some anions and cations was also tested. The method was applied to the determination of molybdenum(VI) in steels and tap water and well water samples.
