摘要
Experimental technique has been inadequate to anodic overvoltage measurements in aluminum electrolysis. To determine its ohmic/voltage drop precisely, a current interruption technique was modified with a high frequency digital oscilloscope, current interrupters with fast switching time, an improved cell configuration and a simulation applied to the oscillating potential decay curve. The results show that the technique can give good reproducibility for overvoltage studies. A substantial increase of anodic overvoltage is observed with graphite powder addition, metallic aluminum addition and CO bubbling in the melts.
