Passivation Behaviors Of Mo,W Electrodes In Mgcl_2-Kcl-Nacl-Cacl_2 Molten Salt For Electrolysis Of Magnesium, Chen Ye, Ye Ke
Journal of Electrochemistry
The discharge process and passivation behaviors of Mg(Ⅱ) on cathode(Mo、W) in MgCl2-KCl-NaCl-CaCl2 molten salt system had been investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry.The composition of molten salt was MgCl(10%)+CaCl(20%)+NaCl(60%)+KCl(10%)(by mass) and the temperature of electrolysis was 725 ℃.The deposition potential of Mo was 37 mV more negative than that of W,while the peak current was sharper than Mo according to the voltammograms at 0.05 V/s,indicating that the passivation on Mo cathode is easier than W.The formation of MgO impurities during the electrolysis could cause the cathode passiration.However,the reversibility on the discharge reaction of W cathode was better than …

Investigation Of The Direct Electrochemical Reduction Of Cr_(2)O_(3) Powder In Molten Cacl_(2) By A Metallic Cavity Electrode, Guo-Hong Qiu, Di-Hua Wang, Xian-Bo Jin, Xiao-Hong Hu, Zheng Chen
Journal of Electrochemistry
A metallic cavity electrode is used for further investigation of the electrochemical behaviour of(Cr_(2)O_3) powder in molten CaCl_(2)(Na: ~0.02% by mass,Mg: < 0.005% by mass) at 900 ℃.The Cr_(2)O_(3) powder reduction mechanism was confirmed in line with EDX and SEM analysis of the potentiostatic electrolysis products.The correlations between the particle size of metallised product and the electrolysis potential,or electrolysis time were analysed.

Journal of Electrochemistry
The cyclic voltammetry, convolution voltammetry, potentiostatic electrolysis and open circuit potential time curve after electrolysis, current time curve at potential step, potential time curve at current step, X ray diffraction, EDAX, electron probe microanalysis were used to investigate the electrode processes of the reduction of rare earth ions on inert electrodes and alloying electrodes in molten chlorides and fluorides. The free energies of formation for the intermetallic compounds, the diffusion coefficients of rare earth ions in the melt, the diffusion coefficients of rare earth atoms in the alloy phases were determined. The alloys of rare earth with iron, cobalt, nickel, …
