Effect of Cell Voltage and Temperature during Electrolytic Reduction of TiO2

Jayashree Mohanty and R.K. Paramguru

The properly dried CaCl2 salt is melted to the required temperature of electrolysis. Electrolysis of TiO2 electrode has been carried out at two different bath temperatures of 900 and 950°C keeping a constant cell voltage of 3 V. Also the electrolysis of TiO2 electrode is carried out at three different cell voltages of 2.8, 3.0 and 3.3 V at a bath temperature of 950°C. The current-time plot is drawn for each experiment. The resulting products after electrolysis are characterized by XRD and SEM. The effects of bath temperature and cell voltage of electrolysis on reduction process as well as on the characteristics of reduced products are studied.
