Drop formation at nozzles submerged in quiescent continuous phase: an experimental study with TBP-dodecane and nitric acid system

Structure and dynamics of dissociated and undissociated forms of nitric acid and their implications in interfacial mass transfer: insights from molecular dynamics simulations

“…Further, the shear viscosity of 3 M nitric acid in undissociated form was calculated and the value is predicted to be 0.798 mPa s, whereas 0.719 mPa s was obtained for the dissociated form of nitric acid. The experimental value of shear viscosity is 0.91 mPa s reported by Roy et al 67 in their drop formation studies. The shear viscosity of the undissociated form of acid is in good agreement with the experimental value compared to the dissociated form of acid.…”

“…The shear viscosity of the mixed form was calculated to be 0.924 mPa s, which is in excellent agreement with the experimental value. 67 The ion–neutral molecule interactions are present in the mixed form of acid, which are neglected in either the undissociated form or dissociated form of nitric acid. This is obvious because nitric acid never exists in the fully dissociated or fully undissociated form in solution, where both forms are always present in the aqueous medium.…”
