Abstract

The present review paper deals the liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) general principles and the basic fundamentals, general process of LLE followed by the importance of LLE reagents. LLE is a process of transferring a chemical compound from one liquid phase to a second liquid phase, immiscible with the first. In analytical chemistry, this method enjoys a favored position among separation techniques because of its simplicity, speed and wide scope. By utilizing apparatus no more complicated than a separatory funnel and requiring several minutes at most to perform, extraction procedures offer much to the analytical chemist.

본 총설은 용매추출(또는 액-액 추출)에 대한 일반적인 원리와 추출제별 용매추출 공정의 기초 원리를 소개하고 있다. 용매추출은 서로 섞이지 않는 두 상(phase)간에 화합물이 한 상(phase)에서 다른 상으로 이동하는 현상을 이용하는 공정이다. 초기에는 분석화학 분야에서 용매추출의 간편성, 신속성 및 넓은 적용성 때문에 많이 사용되었으며, 분액깔데기와 같은 간단한 도구로 수분내에 추출실험을 완료할 수 있다는 장점이 있다.
