Abstract:
Polymeric ammonium compounds are disclosed which have a silica-type backbone, comprised of units having the formula: ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 represent a group ##STR2## in which R.sup.5 is an alkylene grouping and the free valencies of the oxygen atoms are saturated by silicon atoms of further groups (2), if appropriate with incroporation of crosslinking agents, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 have the meaning of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 or represent hydrogen, an alkyl group, cycloalkyl group or the benzyl group, X represents a 1- to 3-valent anion of a protonic acid which forms stable salts with amine bases and x can be a number from 1 to 3. Also disclosed are processes for preparing the polymeric ammonium compounds and to the use of these materials as ion exchange materials.

Abstract:
Improvements are made in the process wherein Li.sup.+ values are recovered from dilute aqueous solution by the use of an anion exchange resin composite containing crystalline LiX.2Al(OH).sub.3, where X is halide. The improvements derive from enriching the Li.sup.+ containing solution with a non-competing metal salt (e.g., NaCl) prior to the Li.sup.+ removal, thereby achieving higher Li.sup.+ loading of the resin composite and obtaining more concentrated eluates.
Abstract:
Magnesium values are selectively recovered from salt brines, even salt brines which contain competing ions such as Li.sup.+, Ca.sup.++, and Sr.sup.++, by contacting the brine with an anion exchange resin which has dispersed therein a microcrystalline structure of the formula MgX.sub.2.2Al(OH).sub.3, where X is a halide.

Abstract:
Formation of hydrous alumina in the reticules of a weak-base anion exchange resin, wherein AlCl.sub.3 has been precipitated as hydrous alumina by reaction with ammonia, is improved by employing a subsequent treatment with HCl or with NH.sub.4 Cl and HCl to convert the exchange resin to the chloride form, thereby increasing the reticular volume of the resin, thus permitting subsequent precipitation of additional hydrous alumina therein.
Abstract:
A weak anion exchange composition useful in polyfunctional compound chromatographic separations comprises an inert porous particle having a tetra-substituted silane material fixedly attached by covalent bonding to the surface thereof. A process for synthesizing the weak anion exchange composition is disclosed together with methods for separation of polyfunctional compounds and their isomers using a column packed with such weak anion exchange composition.
