Effect of Impurity Ions on Solubility and Metastable Zone Width of Lithium Metaborate Salts

The metastable zone width (MZW) of lithium metaborate salts at various concentrations was determined using the laser technique. The solubility data for lithium metaborate salts was nearly the same in the presence of NaCl at various concentrations. The MZW of lithium metaborate salts decreased when t...
