This was achieved by coupling it with a material called
praseodymium cerium copper oxide (PCCO).

The process employs a strong acid and a base to separate the rare earths — the so - called chlor — alkali solvent extraction method — but it still will not produce pure rare earths; rather it will yield oxides of
cerium, lanthanum,
praseodymium and neodymium.
For these tests, the researchers used a compound dubbed PCO, for
praseodymium - doped
cerium oxide.
