Abstract: The isopiestic equilibrium molalities and the osmotic coefficients for the NaOH-NaAl(OH)4-H2O system were measured using isopiestic method. At 303.15 K with the total alkli molality from 0.61 mol/kg to 5.72 mol/kg and molar ratio of Na2O to Al2O3(αK) from 1.98 to 7.04. The experimental data were represented by the Pitzer model. The Pitzer ion interaction parameters were evaluated from experimental data using multiple regression. The measured data of osmotic coefficients are in reasonable agreements with those calculated by the model. The activity coefficients of NaOH and NaAl(OH)4 in the system were calculated from the ion interaction model parameterized, and the values increased with the total alkli molality increasing. These studies are useful to improve the thermodynamic model for sodium aluminate solutions systems and sodium aluminosilicate solutions systems.

Key words: NaOH-NaAl(OH)4-H2O system, Isopiestic method, Isopiestic equilibrium molality, Osmotic coefficient, Pitzer model
