What is Diisooctylphosphinic acid?

Diisooctylphosphinic acid (CAS 83411-71-6), chemically known as bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphonic acid, is a highly selective metal extractant, also known as Cyanex 272, which is widely used in hydrometallurgy, rare earth extraction and battery recycling.

As one of the representatives of organic phosphonic acid extractants, Cyanex 272 exhibits extremely high selectivity and efficiency in separating metal ions such as cobalt, nickel, zinc, and rare earth elements, and has gained a good reputation in industrial applications in cobalt and nickel separation.

What is Cyanex272 used for?

Cobalt and nickel separation in hydrometallurgy

Cyanex 272 shows extremely high selectivity for Co²⁺ at pH 4–5, and can effectively inhibit the co-extraction of Ni²⁺, thereby achieving the recovery of high-purity cobalt salts.

Industrial measured data show that the cobalt/nickel separation factor of Diisooctylphosphinic acid under normal conditions can reach more than 15:1, which is much higher than that of traditional extractants.

Rare earth element extraction

Ionquest 290 has excellent balanced distribution performance in the separation of rare earth metals such as europium, samarium, and gadolinium.

When used with a stripping system (HCl or HNO₃), it can achieve a higher recovery rate and finished product purity, which is suitable for rare earth material purification and magnetic material manufacturing.

Battery material recycling

In the recycling process of waste lithium batteries, Cyanex 272 is widely used to extract positive electrode material elements such as cobalt and manganese.

Experimental data show that in the three-step extraction process, the cobalt recovery rate can reach more than 96%. At the same time, it exhibits good repellency to lithium and aluminum, improving the economy and environmental protection of resource recovery.

FAQ:

Q: Is Cyanex272 suitable for extraction under high temperature environment?

A: The extraction effect is stable in the range of room temperature to 60℃, but it is recommended to avoid too high temperature to maintain the activity of components.

Q: Can different brands of phosphonic acid extractants be mixed and used?

A: It is not recommended to mix them directly. Compatibility and selectivity tests should be carried out under laboratory conditions before industrial application.

Q: Can Diisooctylphosphinic acid be used in non-polar solvents?

A: It is recommended to use medium-polar solvents such as kerosene and toluene to obtain better phase separation effect. Some non-polar solvents will affect the extraction efficiency.
