Separation of lithium and magnesium isotopes by cation exchange elution chromatography was carried out with a synthesized 1,13,16-trioxa-4,7,10-triazacyclooctadecane (N3O3)-4,7,10-trimerrifield peptide resin and with a 2'-aminomethyl-18-crown-6 (AM18C6) bonded Merrifield peptide resin. The resins have a capacity of 0.1 and 2.3 meq/g dry resin. A single stage separation factor of lithium isotopes, 1.018 was obtained by the Glueckauf theory from the elution curve and isotopic assays. The heavier isotope, Li-7 was concentrated in the resin phase, while the lighter isotope, Li-6 concentrated in the solution phase. On the other hand, the heavier isotopes of magnesium were concentrated in the solution phase, while the lighter isotopes were concentrated in the resin phase. The separation factors of Mg-24-Mg-25, Mg-24-Mg-26, and Mg-25-Mg-26 isotope pair fractionations were 1.012, 1.022, and 1.012, respectively. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
