A method for separating metal residues from a polymer wherein a solution or suspension of said polymer is contacted with an aqueous solution contain- ing one or more inorganic acids in the presence of a monocarboxylic acid containing from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. The polymer solution or suspension will be contacted with an oxidizing agent either prior to or simultaneously with the contacting with the aqueous inorganic acid solution. The inorganic acid is, preferably, a mineral acid and the monocarboxylic acid is preferably a branched chain alkanoic acid having from 6 to 10 carbon atoms. When a monocarboxylic acid is used in combination with the inorganic acid, the amount of metal removed from the polymer is increased and the amount of the aqueous phase containing ionized metal entrained in the organic phase is significantly reduced.
