Abstract:

Intrinsic ionization and complexation constants at an alumina/electrolyte interface were studied by the site binding model, while the sorption of alkali cations from aqueous solutions was interpreted by the triple-layer model. The surface properties of alumina were investigated by the potentiometric acid-base titration method. The point of zero charge (pHpzc) of alumina obtained by this method was found to be 7.2. The obtained mean values of the intrinsic protonation and ionization constants of the surface hydroxyl groups and the intrinsic surface complexation constant, in different electrolytes, are pKa1int = 4.4, pKa2int = 9.6 and pKM+int = 9.5, respectively.

Određivanje bitnih ravnotežnih konstanti na graničnoj površini aluminijum-oksid/elektrolit

Date su gustine površniskog naelektrisawa aluminijum-oksida u različitim elektrolitima (LiCl, NaCl, KCl, NaNO3 i Nal) u funkciji pH i jonske jačine elektrolita. Tačka nultog naelektrisanja (pH pzc) upotrebljeno aluminijum-oksida je pri pH 7,2. Koristeći podatke o površinskom naelektrisanju, dobijene metodom potenciometrijske titracije, izračunate su bitne protonizacione i jonizacione konstante površinskih grupa pKinta1 i pKinta2, koje iznose 4,4 i 9,6, respektivno. Srednja vrednost bitnih konstanti kompleksiranja ispitivanih alkalnih katjona sa površinom aluminijum oksida, p*KintM+, iznosi 9,5. Odgovarajuća vrednsot promene slobodne energije sorpcije ispitivanih katjona, ΔGM+, iznosi 54,2 kJ mol-1.
