Electrodeposition of Plutonium

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/804676· OSTI ID:804676
Equipment for electrolytic deposition of plutonium from molten salt solutions was designed and built and was tested with cerium as a stand-in for plutonium. The electrolysis cell is a graphite crucible that serves as the anode; the cathode is a molybdenum rod. This paper discusses results of that test.
