Abstract
The anodic character of a soluble lithium hydride electrode was studied electrochemically in the lithium chloride‐potassium chloride eutectic for possible consideration as a high‐energy, low‐weight electrode material. The results show that current densities as high as 1.55 amp/cm2 (10 amp/in.2) can be maintained on the lithium hydride anode without appreciable polarization. Variation of coulombic efficiency and gassing studies led to the postulation of a one and two electron oxidation of lithium hydride. The oxidation was found to be quite dependent on current density and the physical nature of the grid.
