Abstract:
The method of cyclic voltammetry was used to study cathodic processes in a molten salt of NaCl-KCl-NaF (10 wt %)-K2HfF6-K2SiF6. The parameters of electrochemical synthesis allowing synthesizing hafnium silicides are determined and hafnium silicide HfSi2 is obtained using galvanostatic electrolysis.
