Forced Hydrolysis and Chemical Co-Precipitation

  • Reference work entry

Introduction

The requirements for mono-dispersed solid particles in the range of micrometer or sub-micrometer are becoming more and more recognized. Recording devices, for example, require magnetic an-isometric particles; high quality inorganic pigments require uniform particle size distribution. In some cases, spherical particles allow theoretical calculation for predicting a material's characteristics and properties.

There are many techniques to separate metal ions from a salt solution. Chemical co-precipitation is the most popular technique that is used in industrial applications because of its cheap raw materials, ease of handling and large-scale production. Hydrolysis is attractive because it can produce fine, spherical particles with improved chemical purity, better chemical homogeneity and controlled particle size.

Forced Hydrolysis and Controlled Release of Anions

Most of the homogeneous precipitation processes involve ionic solutions. Mono-dispersive particles can be prepared...
