Effect of chromium compounds on the properties of ion-exchange membranes
The transport properties of ion-exchange membranes MK-40 and MF-4SK, MA-40, and MA-41 in solutions of sodium chloride, chromium(III) chloride, and chromium(VI) oxide have been studied. It has been found that the MA-40 and MA-41 membranes retain their transport properties in chromium chloride(III) solutions, whereas the anion-exchange membranes in chromium(VI) oxide solutions undergo partial or complete degradation. The oxidative impact of chromate ions on both the hydrocarbon matrix of the MK-40 membranes and the chemically resistant perfluorocarbon matrix of the MF-4SK membrane has been revealed.
