A process is described for improving the purity of aqueous quaternary ammonium hydroxides, the process comprising:
(a) heating the aqueous quaternary ammonium hydroxide solution at an elevated temperature of from about 50°C to about 200°C for a period of at least about 0.1 hour; (b) charging the thus treated aqueous solution to the anolyte compartment an electrolysis cell comprising an anolyte compartment and a catholyte compartment separated from each other by a cation-exchange membrane and containing water as the catholyte; (c) passing a direct current through the electrolysis cell to produce a high purity quaternary ammonium hydroxide in the catholyte compartment; and (d) recovering the high purity quaternary ammonium hydroxide from the catholyte compartment.
The process significantly reduces the amount of halogen (both ionic and latent), carbonates and/or metals present in the quaternary ammonium hydroxide and improves the colour.
