Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS), Raman spectra, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) were carried out to state the process and mechanism during anodic reaction. The results show that Ce can be electrochemically oxidized and dissolved in the ionic liquid. The oxide film of Ce markedly affects its anodic behavior by blocking the dissolution of the underlying metal. Moreover. the dissolution of metal surface brings about the stripping of the oxide film on Ce, thus leading to an oxide free surface. This work demonstrates a theoretical foundation for electrolytic etching of Ce in ionic liquids,展开更多

The anodic behavior of Pb and Pb?In alloys was studied in pure phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid containing various concentrations of phosphoric. The electrochemical measurements were performed using potentiodynamic, potentiostatic and cyclic voltammetric techniques. The composition and morphology of passive layer formed on the surfaces of Pb and Pb?In alloys were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The potentiodynamic study shows that the passive current density increases with increasing the indium content in the alloy in the examined solutions. The addition of 0.1 mol/L H3PO4 into theelectrolyte is more effective to decrease the thickness of passive film on the surface of alloys containing higher indium content (10% and 15%). The XRD, EDX and SEM data reveal that the formation of PbSO4 and PbO on the surface decreases with increasing the indium level in the alloy and is completely prevented at higher indium content (15%) in mixed acid.展开更多

The high current peak in a typical cyclic voltammogram was discussed. It is considered that a type of oxyfluoroaliminate complex anions reacts with carbon to form a high-resistance CF film on the anode surface at a high potential. The passivation potential is 3.28 V in 0.5% alumina-containing electrolyte, and the passivation potential increases with alumina content increasing which indicates that the alumina content determines the anodic process in the cryolite-alumina molten salt system.展开更多
