Current-induced composition gradients in molten LiCl-KCl battery electrolytes

OSTI ID:5161641
Current induced composition gradients were demonstrated in molten LiCl-KCl eutectic mixture, the electrolyte of a LiAl/LiCl-KCl/FeS/sub x/ battery. Analysis of composition profiles in quenched samples was by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AA), which gave good precision, and by x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy in a scanning electron microscope (SEM/EDX), which gave good distance resolution. 5 refs.
