Mechanism of surface reactions and dissolution of fluorite surface in an aqueous electrolyte solution
Dissolution of fluorite (111) crystallographic plane and fluorite (CaF2) colloidal particles was studied as a function of pH. The process was examined by measuring the concentration of released fluoride and calcium ions by ion- selective electrodes. Additionally, electrokinetic and inner surface potentials were measured by means of electrophoresis and fluorite single crystal electrode, respectively. The rate of fluorite dissolution was analyzed assuming the reaction mechanism with series of elementary steps including the reaction of surface groups with H+ ions, the formation of F− vacancies, the dissociation of surface groups and release of calcium and fluoride ions into the interfacial region as well as the diffusion of ions from the interfacial region. The proposed reaction mechanism indicates that H+ ions play a necessary role in allowing the dissolution to take place, a concept not possible to confirm by looking at the overall equation of fluorite dissolution. The order of the total reaction with respect to H+ ions was found to be 0.37 which is in good accordance with the value derived from the reaction mechanism (1/3). The experimentally determined rate coefficient of fluorite dissolution was found to be kdis = 9×10–6 mol2/3 dm m–2 s–1.
