production method | 1. Cesium carbonate was dissolved in a small amount of water. Under constant stirring, hydrochloric acid with a relative density of 1.18 was slowly added, and the reaction was heated. When pH = 3, the solution was boiled for half an hour and Cesium hydroxide was added to bring the pH value of the solution to neutral. Filtration, filtrate evaporation and concentration to a large number of crystallization precipitation, cold to room temperature, separation of mother liquor, clean and 100oC drying, that is the finished product. 2. Cesium chloride was prepared by dissolving cesium carbonate in hydrochloric acid and concentrating the solution. Cesium chloride is usually obtained in a purity of 99.5% and can be used directly. For insufficient purity of cesium chloride, the following methods can be used for purification. 15g of cesium chloride was dissolved in 100ml of water by heating. The stoichiometric amount of 24.2g of mercuric chloride was dissolved in 25mL 4mol of hydrochloric acid. The hgcl_2 HCl solution was added to the above solution while hot, mixed with stirring, and cooled to precipitate CsHgCl3 crystals. The crystals were collected by Suction filtration and the mother liquor was discarded. The crystals were dissolved in 120ml of hot water, and after cooling, crystals were precipitated again. For this reason, recrystallization is repeated for 2 to 3 times, and the alkali metal can be reduced to less than 0.01%. Finally, the crystal is dissolved in hot water, and H2S gas is introduced to saturate the solution, and HgS precipitates and filters out HgS, the filtrate was collected and evaporated to dryness to give pure cesium chloride. 3. Usually can be obtained with a purity of 99% 5% of cesium chloride, can be used directly. For insufficient purity of cesium chloride, the following methods can be used for purification. Purification method 1[166] 15g of cesium chloride was dissolved in of water by heating. The stoichiometric amount of 24.2g of mercuric chloride was dissolved in 25mL 4mol of hydrochloric acid. This HgCl2 and HCl solution was added to the above solution while hot, stirred and mixed, and cooled to precipitate CsHgCl3 crystals. The crystals were collected by Suction filtration and the mother liquor was discarded. The crystals were dissolved in 120ml of hot water, and after cooling, crystals were precipitated again. For this reason, recrystallization is repeated for 2 to 3 times, and the alkali metal can be reduced to less than 0.01%.
