What is the density of 50.4% liquid caustic at 60°C in a chlor-alkali plant? In a chlor-alkali plant, how is this density calculated?
You can look it up in the \"Handbook of Physical and Chemical Constants for the Chlor-alkali Industry\"; it’s 1.4967
According to Table 5, the density of 50% NaOH at 60 degrees is 1.4967 g/ml
This should all be measured. For the density of alkaline solutions at room temperature, I roughly use a value of 1.1 for 10% concentration, 1.2 for 20%, and so on, up to 1.5 for 50% concentration; this is fairly accurate.
I want to know what density 50.4% corresponds to
You can choose to conduct a practical test. . .

Density has nothing to do with temperature, right? Temperature affects viscosity; you can refer to the normal temperature for that.
The measured value should be around 1.5! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! .
Are the specific gravities used in the ion-exchange membrane process and the diaphragm process different?
The difference lies in the varying content of impurities.
