Preferred Label : pre-equilibrium;
Detailed label : pre-equilibrium in solvent extraction;
IUPAC definition : preliminary treatment of either phase with a suitable solution of the other phase
(in the absence of main extractable solute(s)) so that when the subsequent equilibration
is carried out changes in the (volume) phase ratio or in the concentrations of other
components are minimized.; preliminary treatment of a solvent in order to convert the extractants into a suitable
chemical form.;
Scope note : the term conditioning may be used as a synonym for pre-equilibration.; the use of equilibration in this sense is confusing and should be avoided.;
Origin ID : P04809;
