anhydrous sodium chromate is a yellow powder crystal. The relative density is 2. 723 and the melting point is 792 ℃. Soluble in water, aqueous solution is alkaline. Sodium chromate in 19. Under 52 ℃, decahydrate crystallized from aqueous solution, which is monoclinic crystal with relative density of 1. 483, very easy to absorb moisture, and unstable; In 19. Crystallization of the hexahydrate, nzcr04 · 6HzO, from 52 to 26.6; In 26. The tetrahydrate was crystallized at 6~62.8 ℃ to give rise to Naz Cr04-4Hz 0, and an anhydrous orthorhombic crystal of a-Naz Cr04 was formed above 62.8 ℃; at 413 °c it is converted to p-Naz Cr04 in the hexagonal system with a melting point of 792 °c.
sodium dichromate mother liquor was added to an alkaline solution of sodium chromate for neutralization. Obtained by filtration, clarification, cooling and separation.
chromate is one of the most effective corrosion inhibitors, used as corrosion inhibitor of circulating cooling water system, the corrosion inhibition rate can reach more than 95%. It is usually used in combination with corrosion inhibitors such as phosphate, zinc salt and polyacrylamide. In the cooling water treatment, when the sodium chromate with high mass fraction (250 ~ 700mg/kg) used alone, the steel corrosion effect is excellent.
hexavalent chromium compounds and their salts were the most toxic among chromium compounds, and the LDso of subcutaneous injection in rabbits was 243mg/kg. The maximum allowable concentration of chromate (sodium, potassium) dust in the air of the production environment is 0.1 mg/ma. Chromate stains the skin, can cause skin itching, produce red pimples or herpes, and the formation of ulcers, mucous membranes will be seriously damaged. Staff should be protected.

production method | 1. Neutralization method is used. The sodium dichromate alkaline solution was added to the neutralizer. Then add sodium dichromate mother liquor for neutralization reaction, after filtration, clarification, cooling crystallization, prepared sodium chromate product. Chromite (Fe, Mg)O ·(Cr, Al, Fe)2O3 is used as raw material to decompose ore with alkali in the presence of strong oxidant. The oxidation roasting was carried out in a tube furnace at a temperature of 1100 to 1200 °c. The formation of sodium chromate begins when the charge is heated to a not too high temperature (600-800 °c). The rate of formation of sodium chromate increases when the temperature increases to approximately 1000 °c. The reaction principle can be approximated by the following equation. The by-products produced in the reaction process (sodium ferrous acid, sodium aluminate and sodium silicate) react with chromite, lime and oxygen to form sodium chromate and insoluble calcium compounds, therefore, the yield of this method is high (75% ~ 81%). An improved method is that the chromite and the additive calcium oxide are calcined at 1000 ℃ to form calcium chromate chromate (CaO · 4 CrO3 · Cr2O3), and then soda ash is added, it is allowed to react with calcium chromate chromate at 600-700 ° C. To form sodium chromate and a small amount of other by-products. Water leaching treatment, and then to the aqueous solution into CO2, the formation of Ca(OH)2 into CaCO3 precipitation, and the formation of CaCrO4 and soda ash reaction to generate NaCrO. |
