Abstract

The dissolution and recrystallisation of beryllium, zinc, cadmium and tin (II) hydroxides and chromium (III), iron(III), aluminium, scandium, yttrium, gallium and indium hydroxides, from sodium hydroxide solutions of concentrations C = 1 to 20 M at ambient temperatures, are surveyed. The different inic equilibria in metal hydroxide‐sodium hydroxide systems are examined: the phases crystallising from different sodium hydroxide solutions are tabulated and crystallisation mechanisms are analysed.
