. The oxides are dissolved in nitric acid that excludes the main components, cerium, whose oxide is insoluble in HNO. Neodymium oxide is separated from other rare-earth oxides by ion exchange. In this process, rare-earth ions are adsorbed onto suitable resin by ion exchange with hydrogen, ammonium or cupric ions present in the resin. The rare earth ions are then selectively washed out by suitable complexing agent, such as ammonium citrate or nitrilotracetate.
This process normally yields NdO; the oxide is difficult to directly convert
