Fig. 43 Values of a-parameters for the Al/Fe-Friedel’ salt solid solution determined in this study<br />

compared to the findings by Kuzel et al. [88], Goetz Neunhoeffer et al. [100], Rapin et al.<br />

[99] and Rousselot et al. [96].<br />

3.3.6. Solubility<br />

The concentrations of the solutions were measured after different equilibration times for<br />

pure Fe-Friedel’s salt (Table 22 and Table 23) and for mixed Al/Fe-Friedel’s salts (Table<br />

25). The measured ion concentrations were used for the calculation of the solubility<br />

products of Friedel’s salt.<br />

3.3.6.1. Solubility of Fe-Friedel’s salt<br />

The Fe-Friedel’s salt prepared from FeCl3.6H2O and CaO in 0.1 M KOH did not contain<br />

portlandite as also indicated by the low portlandite ion activity product (-6), thus<br />

indicating effectively undersaturation. The concentrations of calcium, chloride and iron in<br />

the aqueous phase were relatively high compared to the other samples; while the<br />
