The theory and ways of applying a new electroanalytical detectior
method were developed. The method, called galvanovoltammetry,
consists of the measurement of current from the bipolar electrode of
a three electrode cell which consists of a working electrode and a
counter electrode, between which a constant current is applied, and...
As with many pairs of metals, the electrodeposition of Pb-Tl, Cu-Cd, and Cu-Ni at solid electrodes yielded partial polarization curves shifted from the polarization curves of the single metals. The curves for the more noble metals (Pb, Cu) were shifted negatively while the less noble metals'(Tl, Cd, Ni) curves were...
The extraction of tantalum fluoride complexes by large cationic
extractants (tetraphenylarsonium ion, TPA, and crystal violet) and
by methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) has been investigated as a function
of fluoride concentration using ¹⁸² Ta as tracer. Extractions by the
cationic extractants into chloroform were carried out in the absence
of...
New alloys containing refractory metals have been developed
by the aero-space industry to meet the demand for thermally resistant
materials. The chemical analysis of these alloys has been
handled successfully by the use of ion exchange. Hydrofluoric acid,
either alone or combined with hydrochloric acid, has here-to-fore
been used to...
The electrochemistry of the lithium-potassium-sodium
carbonate-borate melt was explored by voltammetry and chrono-amperometry. In support of this, a controlled-potential polarograph
and associated hardware was constructed.
Several different types
of reference electrodes were tried before choosing a porcelain membrane electrode containing a silver wire immersed in a silver sulfate
melt.
The...
