This article describes several extraction chromatographic materials aiming to offer improved potential for isolating trace elements with high charge/ionic radius ratio from accompanying matrix elements in natural samples. Starting with commercially available, field-proven, TRU- and RE-Spec materials (Eichrom Technologies), three resins containing less TBP in the CMPO-TBP mixtures, or even neat CMPO only, have been prepared and characterized through measurement of the distribution ratios of some fifty elements in HNO 3  and HCl media of variable strength. These resins were further evaluated for analytical applications on geochemical samples. The results highlight a strong enhancement of weight distribution ratios of many elements of interest in geochemistry, cosmochemistry, and environmental sciences (Lanthanides, naturally occurring Actinides, High Field Strength Elements). Combined with good chromatographic characteristics, these high D w ’s make it possible to achieve excellent group separations by using very small columns operated at relatively high, gravity-driven flow rate. Moreover, in an attempt to further improve the selectivity against Fe(III) and Ti(IV), preliminary investigations were made on an additional pair of resin prototypes impregnated with a CMPO-substituted calixarene. Although promising distribution ratio data were obtained, these prototypes did not permit to prepare columns with satisfactory chromatographic characteristics, and this approach still waits for a better impregnation methodof the porous inert support.
