A laboratory-scale investigation of the production of aluminum by the electrolysis of aluminum sulfide in molten salt electrolytes has been carried out at Argonne National Laboratory. The solubility, electrochemical behavior, and electrolysis of Al/sub 2/S/sub 3/ were studied in MgCl/sub 2/-NaCl-KCl eutectic and in the eutectic containing AlCl/sub 3/ at 1023K.
