    Electrochemical Behavior of Zr(Ⅳ) on Mo Electrode in LiCl-KCl Molten Salt

    • 摘要: 通过循环伏安法、方波伏安法和计时电位法等研究了LiCl-KCl 共晶熔盐中ZrCl4于Mo电极上的电化学行为。探究Zr(Ⅳ)于Mo阴极的还原机理,并计算Zr(Ⅱ) 的扩散系数及Zr(Ⅱ)/Zr(0)的表观标准电势。结果表明:Zr(Ⅳ)在Mo阴极还原机理为:Zr(Ⅳ)+2e=Zr(Ⅱ);Zr(Ⅱ)+2e=Zr(0)或Zr(Ⅱ)+e+Cl-=ZrCl;ZrCl+e=Zr(0)+Cl-;金属Zr在阳极的氧化过程为:Zr(0)-2e=Zr(Ⅱ)和Zr(Ⅱ)-2e=Zr(Ⅳ)。Zr(Ⅳ)还原为Zr(Ⅱ)和Zr(Ⅱ)还原为Zr(0)均为可逆反应,且还原过程均为扩散控制。LiCl-KCl熔盐中Zr(Ⅱ)于Mo阴极上的扩散系数与温度的关系为:ln D=-6 724/T-2.95,扩散的活化能Ea=55.9 kJ/mol。Zr(Ⅱ)/Zr(0)的表观标准电位与温度的关系为:EΘ*Zr(Ⅱ)/Zr(0)=-2.695+9.33×10-4T

       

      Abstract: In this presentation, the electrochemical behaviors of ZrCl4 on the Mo electrode in the LiCl-KCl molten salt have been investigated by various techniques,including-cyclic-voltammetry,square-wave-voltammetry, and chronopotentiometry etc. The reduction mechanism of Zr(Ⅳ) on the Mo electrode has been discussed, and the diffusion coefficient of Zr(Ⅱ) and the apparent standard potential of Zr(Ⅱ)/Zr(0) have been calculated. The results show that the reduction mechanism of Zr(Ⅳ) on the Mo cathode is that Zr(Ⅳ)+2e=Zr(Ⅱ); Zr(Ⅱ)+2e=Zr(0) or Zr(Ⅱ)+e+Cl-=ZrCl; ZrCl+e=Zr(0)+Cl-, and the oxidation process of Zr on the anode is: Zr(0)-2e=Zr(Ⅱ) and Zr(Ⅱ)-2e=Zr(Ⅳ). The CV of LiCl-KCl-ZrCl4 indicate that the reduction process Zr(Ⅱ)/Zr(0) is reversible and controlled by diffusion. The dependence of diffusion coefficients of Zr(Ⅱ) in the LiCl-KCl molten salt with temperature is ln D=-6724/T-2.95 and the activation energy is Ea=55.9 kJ/mol. The relationship of apparent standard potential of Zr(Ⅱ)/Zr(0) is EΘ*Zr(Ⅱ)/Zr(0)=-2.695+9.33×10-4T.
