Influence of polymer and inorganic modifiers on the process of phase formation in potassium sulfate saturated solutions

Abstract

The process of potassium sulfate crystallization from aqueous solutions in the presence of organic modifiers containing phosphonic, phosphate, sulfonic, sulfate and carboxyl functional groups has been studied. It is shown that the introduction of organic substances has an inhibitory effect on the formation of potassium sulfate crystals. Modifiers containing sulfonic, sulfate and phosphonic functional groups have the greatest inhibitory effect. The effectiveness of modifiers containing carboxyl groups is significantly lower. The formation of stable supersaturated solutions of potassium sulfate is achieved by introducing organic modifiers in an amount of 0.25 – 0.50%.
