Abstract Precipitate formation between phosphotungstic acid and crown ethers is a general phenomenon, producing solids with selective ion exchange behavior for the alkali metal ions. Distribution coefficients for Li+, Na+, K+, and Cs+ were measured for a series of these precipitates with different crown ethers. The sorption data are more complicated than for the corresponding phosphomolybdates and indicate a variability in the number of exchangeable sites with H+ and M+ concentration. The crown ether used markedly affects the cation selectivity of the phosphotungstate precipitates.
