The solubilities of uranyl dlbutyl phosphate, uranyl monobutyl phosphate, ferric dibutyl phosphate, and ferric monobutyl phosphate were measured in aqueous nitric acid solutions ranging from 0 to 3 M and in 30% TBP in Amsco 125-82 solution containing 0--0.7 M HNO/sub 3/. For the respective compounds in the aqueous phases, as the acidity increased from 0 to 3 M, the solubilities increased from 0.004 to 0.7 g U/liter, O.O5to 50 g U/liter, <1 to 30 mg Fe(III)/ liter, and 0.003 to 3 g Fe(III)/liter; corresponding solubilities in the organic phases increased with acidity from 14 to 165 g U/liter, 11 to 110 g U/liter,
