Kinetics of the electrochemical reduction of trivalent neptunium ion in the (Li-K)Cl eutectic at 450 deg C
Description
Voltammetric and chronoamperometric investigations on the reduction of Np(III) in the (Li-K)Cl melt are reported. The electrode reaction is nearly reversible and a nucleation phenomenon appears in the early deposition of neptunium metal. The Tafel equation corresponding to that deposition indicates that the charge transfer is the rate-determining step of the overall electrode process. (author)
