Abstract:
      Electrochemical reduction mechanism of electrodeposited W in NaCl-KCl-NaF-Na2WO4 molten salt was studied by cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry. Crystallization process of tungsten was investigated by chronoamperometry. The results show that electrode process of tungsten electrodeposition in NaCl-KCl-NaF-Na2WO4 molten salt is a quasi-reversible process controlled by mixing of charge migration velocity and diffusion velocity. Reduction mechanism of tungsten is 0.5W2O72-+6e→W+3.5O2-. Electrocrystallization of tungsten in NaCl-KCl-NaF-Na2WO4 molten salt accords with transient nucleation process of hemispherical three-dimensional crystal nucleus.
