Scandium Solvent Extraction | SpringerLink

It is important to understand that at low pH values, in strong sulfate solutions, the scandium will be present as a scandium sulfate complex ion. When stripped from the organic phase with chloride-based solutions, the scandium strips as a complex chloride ion. It is therefore important to keep the chloride ion activity high in the strip solution.

Scandium – Leaching and Extraction Chemistry

Scandium (Sc) is the lightest of REE. It has atomic number 21, thus being the neighbor of calcium (Ca).
