Metal Alkyl Ether Carboxylates as Amphiphilic Metal Salts for Tunable Liquid–Liquid Extraction of Critical Metals

Efficient separation of critical metals from complex secondary resources remains a key challenge in hydrometallurgical recycling and resource recovery. Conventional liquid–liquid extraction typically relies on hydrophobic extractants dissolved in organic diluents, resulting in chemically complex systems that often ra...
