Electrochemical Synthesis of Magnesium Hexaboride by Molten Salt Technique
The present work reports electrochemical synthesis of MgB6 from molten salts using the precursor consists of LiF-B2O3-MgCl2. An attempt has been made to synthesize metastable phase MgB6 crystal by electrolysis method. DTA/TGA studies were made to determine the eutectic point of the melt and it was found to be around 900°C. The electrolysis was performed at 900°C under argon atmosphere, at curre...
متن کاملMolten uranium dioxide structure and dynamics.
Uranium dioxide (UO2) is the major nuclear fuel component of fission power reactors. A key concern during severe accidents is the melting and leakage of radioactive UO2 as it corrodes through its zirconium cladding and steel containment. Yet, the very high temperatures (>3140 kelvin) and chemical reactivity of molten UO2 have prevented structural studies. In this work, we combine laser heating,...
متن کاملMolten-salt Reactor Chemistry
This document summarizes the large program of chemical research and development which led to selection of fuel and coolant compositions for the Molten-Salt Reactor Experiment (MSRE) and for subsequent reactors of this type. Chemical behavior of the LiF-BeFrZrFrUF4 fuel mixture and behavior of fission products during power operation of MSRE are presented. A discussion of the chemical reactions w...
متن کاملMolten Salts and Isotope Separation
The work on molten salts and isotope separation performed over the years at Université Pierre et Marie Curie and at Collège de France is critically reviewed. This research, closely related to A. Klemm’s pioneering contributions, leads among other things to the discovery of the effect now called the ‘Chemla effect’, after the late Professor Marius Chemla. These studies of ionic motions in melts,...
متن کاملCATHODE CONDITIONING IN MOLTEN SALT ELECTROWINNING OF MAGNESIUM METAL FROM M&lz
I t has been recognised that a major factor which affects the current efficiency in the commercial electrolytic cells for magnesium is the wettability of the cathode surface with respect to magnesium and the ability of the metal deposited to grow into a considerable size on cathode surface before getting released from it. Factors affecting these and studies to improve the wettability have alrea...
