Abstract:
      With crude scandium (Sc2O3 99%~99.95%) extracted from titanium white waste acid as raw material, scandium oxalate was prepared with the following purification processes including acid dissolution, T204 and D305 multistage extraction and back extraction, oxalic acid precipitation. The results show that scandium oxide with a high purity of 99.999% is obtained with the recovery of 93.49% after scandium oxalate calcining.
