Abstract
The study of electrolyte bath properties is essential for the
improvement of silver electrolysis based processes. The paper outlines
investigations into suitable models for the calculation of
physico-chemical properties with the emphasis placed on conductivity,
density and viscosity. Measurements were conducted within the industrial
operation parameters used for silver electrolytes and the results
indicate that these type of industrial electrolytes have an operating
conductivity within the range of 60-140 mS/cm, density of 1.05-1.14
g/cm3 and a viscosity of 0.75-0.91 mm2/s. A representative model for
each of these properties was proposed in order to calculate the
conductivity, density and viscosity of silver electrolyte. From the
evaluation of models, it was determined that all models have
R2 (accuracy of fit) and Q2 (accuracy of
prediction) values above 0.9 and thus can be regarded as excellent
models.
