“…242 " 247 However, caution should be exercised in choosing the correct bands since some misassignments have apparently been made. 242 As previously stated, hydration in cation and anion exchangers can be examined by IR. Recently, this phenomenon was studied for exchangers in a variety of charged forms at various water levels using the band at 1.9 £<m. 248 The data were compared to IR data for solutions of corresponding ions, and hydration numbers for the exchangers were calculated.…”
