Sorption of Amiii onto orthophosphates of the rare-earth elements with different crystal structures

The effect of ionic strength, pH value, and particles morphology on the Amⁱⁱⁱ sorption onto LnPO₄ with different crystalline structures, i.e., monazite, xenotime, and rhabdophane, was established. The sorption capacity of the LnPO₄ was found to be independent of its crystal structure and equal to ca. 1 μmol m^–2.
