VISCOSITIES OF BINARY AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS OF NACL KCL NA2SO4 AND MGSO4 AT CONCENTRATIONS AND TEMPERATURES OF INTEREST IN DESALINATION PROCESSES

Experimental viscosity and density measurements are reported on binary salt solutions over the range of ionic strength levels from 0.1 to 3.5 and the temperature range from 25° to 150°C. The estimated precision for the viscosity data is 0.1 to 0.2% and for densities, 0.02%. The data were correlated by using Othmer’s rule, yielding an over-all precision of 0.4 to 0.5%. Literature data were reviewed and compared with the correlation. © 1968, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
