Abstract
In the present work, a real-time monitoring system for molten LiCl-KCl eutectic salt medium is set up with optically accessible quartz windows mounted on the furnace and the CMOS camera. Based on the designed system, the real-time monitoring was carried out to investigate the electrode behavior in various electrochemical systems, such as (1) differences in Co morphology deposited in molten CoCl2-LiCl-KCl system by various electrochemical deposition methods, (2) a reoxidation behavior of electrochemically reduced lithium, and (3) a reduction of Zr(IV) ions to Zr(III) ions in the molten ZrCl4-LiCl-KCl system. By delivering the video signal from the CMOS camera to the PC which controls the potentiostat, the visual changes can also be synced with the measured current or potential during the experiment. This enables us to compare the visualized morphological properties on the surface of the working electrode under different applied potential conditions during the application of electroanalytical methods.
