Production of 111In and Radioisotopes of Te and Sn from an Antimony Target Irradiated with High-Energy Protons

Radiochemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

A method for the production of 111In from an antimony target irradiated with 600 MeV protons has been developed. Here, a three-stage scheme of indium purification using ion-exchange chromatography is performed. The radiochemical yield is 85%, with a decontamination factor of the target material of no less than 109. The 111In preparation produced by the present method was used in studies of perturbed angular correlations. Also, a procedure for the production and separation of 117mSn/119mTe was developed, which is of particular interest for further studies on designing a generator to produce 119Sb.
