Abstract
IT has been shown1 that cations may be precipitated around the beads of an anion exchange resin in a column, when passed in aqueous solution through the resin, which is in a form providing a suitable anion. For example, when a cobalt solution is used with a resin in the sulphide form, cobalt sulphide is formed around the beads of resin. The nature of these precipitates suggested that fairly high concentrations of precipitating anion were present in the region of the surface of the resin particles.
