Summary:PURPOSE:To obtain highly purified potassium tantalum fluoride containing a slight radioactive element or metal of high melting point by dissolving crude potassium tantalum fluoride in a hydrofluoric acid solution at a specific temperature range and cooling the solution to below normal temperature to recrystallize. CONSTITUTION:Crude potassium tantalum fluoride is poured into hydrofluoric acid or a mixed solution containing hydrofluoric acid and resultant solution is heated to 50-95 deg.C, then cooled to below 20 deg.C. Potassium tantalum fluoride crystal re-crystallized by cooling is filtrated and sufficiently washed to become pH5-6 preferably in an alkaline solution, e.g., a solution having >=9 of pH, then the recrystallized crystal is dried at 140-300 deg.C.
