Identification of the states of the processes at liquid cathodes under potentiostatic conditions using semantic diagram models

Abstract

A technique is described for constructing semantic diagram models of the electrolysis at a liquid cathode in a salt halide melt under potentiostatic conditions that are intended for identifying the static states of this system that correspond to certain combinations of the electrode processes or the processes occurring in the volumes of salt and liquid-metal phases. Examples are given for the discharge of univalent and polyvalent metals. © 2012 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
