Abstract
666,281. Electrolytic production of magnesium alloys. NATIONAL RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. April 27, 1950 [April 27, 1949], No. 11248/49. Class 41] Lithium-containing magnesium alloys are produced by electrolysis of one or more fused salts containing lithium, the cathode being of magnesium or magnesium alloy and the electrolyte being maintained at a temperature less than the melting-point of the material of the cathode, but above that of lithium. In the apparatus shown, a bath 1 in an electric furnace 2 is provided with a graphite anode 3 and a magnesium cathode 4. The cathode stands on a perforated crucible 5 of alumina and its upper portion is shielded by a refractory and insulating hood 6 of alumina having a hole through which passes a conductor 7. A thermocouple 8 depends from the lid 9. During electrolysis molten magnesium-lithium alloy floats to the upper part of the hood 6 and is removed by raising the crucible 5, the electrolyte but not the alloy draining away through perforations in the crucible. The electrolyte may comprise lithium chloride and potassium chloride maintained at a temperature of 450‹ C. The alloy instead of being produced in molten form may be produced as a solid alloy. Where ternary or other complex alloys are required the elements other than lithium are introduced by the use of cathodes made of the appropriate magnesium alloy.
