| Summary |
"A study of the current-potential relationships, and the electrodeposition of antimony metal was conducted for fused mixtures of Sb₂S₃-Na₂S, Sb₂S₃-Sb and Sb₂S₃-NaCl-KCl in the temperature range of 700° - 900°C. An attempt was made to determine the mutual solubility of molten antimony and Sb₂S₃-Na₂S melts. The microstructure of deposited metal was studied metallographically. Analysis of phases present in the matte mixture (Sb₂S₃-Na₂S ) was made by x-ray diffraction patterns. All investigations were carried out in a protective atmosphere of argon gas. Graphite electrodes were used for the electrolysis. A detailed description is given for the process and apparatus used in the experiments. The methods used for the preparation of anhydrous Na₂S and the electrolytic master mixture of Sb₂S₃ and Na₂S are also discussed"--Abstract, leaf ii. |
