Abstract: | The study of the mechanism of the electrode reaction Mn(II)/Mn in the aluminium electrorefining bath free of aluminium fluoride (1·48 NaF-1·05 BaCl2) has been carried out by chronopotentiometry with an inert graphite electrode, a manganese electrode and a platinum electrode; this study was supplemented by utilizing anodic chronopotentiometry with current reversal from a stationary state. The tests carried out at 800° C show that the exchange mechanism of Mn(II)/Mn is reversible, involves the exchange of two electrons and that the diffusion coefficient DMn(II)=(1·9±0·5)×10–5 cm2 s–1. |
