Electrochemical behavior of neodymium (III) ion was studied in LiCl-KCl eutectic melt in the temperature range 723-798 K on inert tungsten electrode using various transient electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry, convolution voltammetry, chronopotentiometry and square wave voltammetry. The reduction of Nd(III) ion to Nd metal on tungsten electrode takes place in two steps- Nd(III)/Nd(II) and Nd(II)/Nd(0). The diffusion coefficient of Nd(III) and Nd (II) ions were determined. Reduction of Nd(III) to Nd(II) showed reversible electrode behavior and that for Nd(II) to Nd metal followed the quasi-reversible behavior. Heterogeneous rate constant for the reduction, Nd(II)/Nd(0) was estimated from the convoluted voltammograms. The apparent standard electrode potentials,ENd(III)/Nd(II)*, ENd(II)/Nd(0)* and ENd(III)/Nd(0)* were estimated from the cyclic voltammograms.

The electrode behavior of Nd(III) ion on solid aluminium electrode and liquid cadmium electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry. Under-potential reduction of Nd(III) ion takes place on Al and Cd cathodes in a single step with three electron transfer. The apparent standard electrode potentials, ENd(III)/Nd(Al)* and ENd(III)/Nd(Cd)* were estimated for different temperatures in the range 698-773 K. The formation of intermetallics, Al11Nd3 and Cd11Nd were studied from open circuit potential measurement on Al and Cd film electrode respectively. The Gibbs energy of formation for these intermetallics was evaluated. The activity of neodymium in Al/Cd, the excess Gibbs energy and the activity coefficient of neodymium in Al/Cd were estimated from the open circuit potential measurement. SEM-EDX analysis and the XRD pattern of the electro-deposit revealed the formation of Al11Nd3 and Cd11Nd on Al and Cd cathodes respectively.

氯化钕在熔融LiCl-KCl共晶中W,Al和Cd电极上的电化学行为研究

使用各种瞬时电化学技术,例如循环伏安法,卷积伏安法,计时电位法和方波伏安法,研究了在惰性钨电极上温度范围为723-798 K的LiCl-KCl共晶熔体中钕(III)离子的电化学行为。Nd(III)离子在钨电极上还原为Nd金属的过程分为两个步骤-Nd(III)/ Nd(II)和Nd(II)/ Nd(0)。确定了Nd(III)和Nd(II)离子的扩散系数。Nd(III)还原为Nd(II)表现出可逆的电极行为,而Nd(II)还原为Nd金属则遵循准可逆的行为。减少的异质速率常数Nd(II)/ Nd(0)由卷积的伏安图估计。表观标准电极电位Eñd一世一世一世/ñd一世一世*Eñd一世一世/ñd0*Eñd一世一世一世/ñd0* 由循环伏安图估算。
