Electrochemical Properties of Tungsten in Molten Alkali Metal Chlorides

Аннотация

The anodic dissolution of metallic tungsten in the eutectic 3LiCl–2KCl (723–1023 K) and NaCl–2CsCl (823–1023 K) melts was studied by high-temperature electrochemistry and spectroscopy. W(IV) ions are formed in the melt. The conventional electrode potentials of tungsten were determined.
