چکیده

Graphite is widely used in technology because of its unique properties. A drawback of graphite is its low heat resistance in oxidizing atmospheres. To increase its heat resistance, Nb-Hf protective coatings were synthesized. Electrodeposition of niobium coatings on graphite with subsequent precise surface alloying of niobium with hafnium was studied. Electrochemical synthesis of Nb-Hf coatings from molten salt systems containing compounds of niobium and hafnium was used too. It was shown that Nb-Hf coatings with a planar growing front can be obtained if the concentration and therefore the limiting current density of the more electropositive component Nb is kept low. Nb-Hf coatings with a thickness of 20 – 30 μm have been obtained in this way from an NaCl-KCl-K2NbF7 (1 wt%)-K2HfF6 (10 wt%)-NaF (5 wt%) melt, above the limiting current density of niobium deposition.

Preparation of the TiB2 coatings by electroplating in molten salts

The improvement of titanium diboride (TiB2) coatings over the molybdenum substrate was investigated by comparing the electrochemical techniques of continuous current plating (CCP) and periodically interrupted current (PIC). The solvent used was a eutectic Flinak mixture (LiF–NaF– KF, 46.5:11.5:42molar ratio) with solutes K2TiF6 andKBF4 with the electrochemically-active components in themolar ra...

The Influence of Oxide on the Electrochemical Processes in K2NbFT-NaCI-KCI Melts

Transient electrochemical techniques showed that in NaCI-KC1 melts the reduction of K2NbF7 occurs through a two-step reaction Nb(V) --> Nb(IV) --> Nb. When oxide ions were introduced, cyclic voltammetry indicated that the waves corresponding to reduction ol the complex NbF~progressively disappeared. Oxo complexes, such as NbOF~ n 3) , are reduced at a potential close to that of the Nb(IV) fluor...
