Abstract
Disclosed is a method of reducing the turbidity of an aqueous solution of chromic acid which is formed by dissolving melted chromic anhydride in water. The chromic anhydride is contacted with water in an amount in excess of 0.02 wt %, but insufficient to form a solution, at a temperature above ambient but below about 196.degree. C. The water may be in the form of a liquid, water vapor, or steam. When the chromic anhydride is subsequently dissolved in water, the solution is much less turbid than it otherwise would be.
