With over 60 years of experience in radioisotopes production we are focused on the following products: radiopharmaceuticals, standard solutions and reference sources, industrial sealed sources and listed here radiochemicals. At present our products are regularly used in more than 70 countries worldwide. Quality Assurance System established at the Radioisotope Centre POLATOM in the area of manufacturing, sales, dispatching and transport of radioactive materials is certified according to PN-EN ISO 9001:2015-10 Orders When ordering please refer to availability and specify at least the following information: - the specific product code - name of the product - activity - quantity Enquires and orders - required shipping date should be sent to: National Centre for Nuclear Research (NCBJ), Radioisotope Centre POLATOM Andrzej Soltan 7 05-400 Otwock Poland Phone: +48 22 273 1820 or +48 22 273 1840 fax: +48 22 779 7381 e-mail: [email protected] [email protected] www.polatom.pl 4 Labelling, certificates, calibration Label on a packaging contains data referring to the preparation: the nature of the product, activity at a given date, the volume, lot number, expiration, the product code, container type and number and certificate number. Calibration specifies time (hours, days) after shipping, for which the nominal activity is calculated. A certificate is attached to every shipment of radioactive material The radiochemicals are mainly manufactured from the targets irradiated in Research Reactor MARIA. Packaging Determination of the type of packaging is settled by dangerous nature of the transported material: depending on its radiotoxicity, radioactivity and its tendency to spread. Packing and transportation of radiochemical preparations are performed in accordance with international Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) requirements and the Regulations for Safe Transport of Radioactive materials (IATA, ADR) The typical packaging of radioactive material consists of following elements: - vial, - shielding container, - metal can with styrofoam mould, - external cardboard box with styrofoam mould. Radiochemical preparations are packed in vials and shielding containers. The containers are sealed in a metal can containing a styrofoam mould. Then the can is fixed inside cardboard packaging. 5 Containers type A certified by POLATOM Standard shielding containers type A, non-returnable packaging, used for radiochemicals: Container Shielding

The material is divided into three parts: scan- dium group ͑Sc, Y, La͒, light lanthanide ͑Ce-Eu͒, and heavy lanthanide ͑Gd-Lu͒ chlo- rides; this part covers the scandium group. Compilations of all available experimental data are introduced for each rare earth metal chloride with a corresponding critical evalu- ation. Every such evaluation contains a tabulated collection of all solubility results in ͑ ͒ water, a scheme of the water-rich part of the equilibrium Y, La, Ln Cl3 –H2O phase diagram, solubility equation͑s͒, a selection of suggested solubility data, and a discussion of the multicomponent systems. Because the ternary and quaternary systems were almost never studied more than once, no critical evaluations or systematic comparisons of such data were possible. Only simple chlorides ͑no complexes͒ are treated as the input sub- stances in this work. The literature ͑including a thorough coverage of papers in Chinese and Russian͒ has been covered through the middle of 2007. © 2008 American Institute of Physics. ͓DOI: 10.1063/1.2956740͔ Key words: aqueous solution; lanthanum chloride; phase diagram; scandium chloride; solubility; yttrium chloride.

High-purity anhydrous ScCl3 molten salt was used as the Sc-bearing raw material for preparing the Sc-bearing master alloy. Inert gas was used to enhance the purity of anhydrous scandium chloride and reduce the hydrolysis rate of scandium. The results show that high-purity scandium chloride (purity, 99.69%) with the scandium content of 29.61%, was obtained, and the hydrolysis rate of scandium was 1.19% under the conditions used: removing ammonium chloride; residual crystal water temperature of 400 ◦C; m(Sc2O3):m(NH4Cl) = 1:2.5; holding-time of 90 min; heating-rate of 12 ◦C/min; and argon flow of 7.5 L/min.

CHLORINATION AND SELECTIVE VAPORIZATION OF RARE EARTH ELEMENTS by Daniel W. Gaede A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering Montana Tech 2016 i Abstract Rare earth elements are part of the lanthanide series in the periodic table. The uses and applications for these elements are ever increasing. Applications vary from smart phones to medical imaging equipment and more. Current separation techniques used today are hydrometallurgically intensive. The purpose of this study was to investigate a pyrometallurgical alternative to separate rare earth elements in ores. The proposed method, chlorination, would convert the rare earth oxides to chlorides and then apply vapor phase separation techniques to isolate the rare earth chlorides by temperature. Various reagent grade rare earth oxides were initially studied to determine chlorination efficiencies. Chlorination optimization experiments were then performed on Yb2O3, where the parameters were refined.
