Abstract

The electrochemical behavior of UN in the LiCl-KCl eutectic melt containing UC13 at the temperature between 723 and 823 K was investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The redox reaction of UN seemed to be irreversible, since the generated N2gas was escaped from the salt phase. By the controlled-potential electrolysis of UN at -0.55 V vs. Ag/AgCl reference electrode in the UCl3-LiCl-KCl eutectic melt, UN was dissolved into the salt as U3+ at the anode and U metal was recovered at the cathode.
