Electrolysis of metal oxides in MgCl2 based molten salts with an inert graphite anode

Electrolysis of solid metal oxides has been demonstrated in MgCl2–NaCl–KCl melt at 700 °C taking the electrolysis of Ta2O5 as an example. Both the cathodic and anodic processes have been investigated using cyclic voltammetry, and potentiostatic and constant voltage electrolysis, with the cathodic pr...
