Hydroxyl release increasedwith the selenite concentration, with a rapid increase at a low selenite concentration while slowing down ata high concentration. The pH where maximum of hydroxyl release appeared was not constant, shifting toa lower valus with increasing selenite concentration. Hydroxyl release decreased with increasing electrolyteconcentration, and the decrease was very rapid at a low electrolyte concentration but slow at a high electrolyteconcentration. For NaC1O4, NaC1 and Na2SO4, hydroxyl release was in the order of NaClO4 > NaCl >Na2SO4, and the difference was very significant.

The amount of hydroxyl release from Xuwenlatosol was greater than that from Jinxian red soil. Hydroxyl release existed in a wider range of pH withXuwen latosol than with Jinxian red soil, due to their difference in soil properties.
