ABSTRACT
Adsorption of chloride on strongly basic anion exchange resins from very dilute acid and neutral media as well as from alkali hydroxide solutions is a very effective means to separate CI from virtually all accompanying cationic elements. Adsorption of chloride on anion exchange resins has been employed in connection with the determination of this ion in rocks, waters and in a variety of industrial products. Anion exchange of oxy anions of halogens has not only been used for their mutual separation but also in connection with the determination of chlorate and chlorite in spent bleaching liquors. Cation exchange separations of Cl species, mainly chloride, have been used in connection with the determination of Cl in waters, beer, plants and in industrial materials. Chloride and other anionic Cl species are not retained by strongly acidic cation exchange resins from weakly acid to neutral solutions and ammoniacal systems.
