Phk. Dejong et Gw. Neilson, HYDROGEN-BOND STRUCTURE IN AN AQUEOUS-SOLUTION OF SODIUM-CHLORIDE AT SUBCRITICAL AND SUPERCRITICAL CONDITIONS, The Journal of chemical physics, 107(20), 1997, pp. 8577-8585
The method of neutron diffraction and isotopic substitution was used t
o determine the hydrogen-bond structure as defined by g(OH)(r) in a 1
m aqueous electrolyte solution of sodium chloride at two thermodynamic
states, one subcritical with T=300 degrees C and P=120 bar, and the o
ther supercritical T=460 degrees C and P=800 bar (the critical tempera
ture oi 1 m sodium chloride is 425 degrees C). The results are similar
to those found in pure water substance, and confirm the progressive d
isruption of the hydrogen bond network brought about by an increase in
temperature. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics. [S0021-9606(97)5
