Abstract

The article investigates the temperature regimes of the reaction surface of the hydroxide layer formed on the surface of ferrosilicon alloy (FS90Ba4) during layer-by-layer interaction with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution in a glass reactor. The interaction of FS90Ba4 alloy samples with aqueous NaOH solution was further studied in a hydrogen reactor operating under isochoric conditions (V = 1.13×10⁻³ m³). Temperature–time profiles were analyzed, and the motion and fluid flow velocity around of spherical FS90Ba4 alloy particles during their interaction with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution in the hydrogen reactor were determined.
