Thiosulfate in the Wollak Procedure - Analysis and Kinetics in Acidic Formaldehyde,

Abstract

The Wollak procedure for the analysis of the sum of dithionite and thiosulfate has been investigated. Analytical data and a kinetic study confirm the reaction of thiosulfate with formaldehyde under acidic conditions. Both pH and formaldehyde concentration affect the results and satisfactory analysis can be performed only if the pH of the initial formaldehyde - sample mixture remains high enough. (Author)
