The process of Cr and Si joint electroreduction in chloride-fluoride melt proceeds in one stage in a kinetic mode. The cathode product was analyzed using XRD (X-ray diffraction) method. XRD data have confirmed that CraSi is the dominant phase. SEM (scanning electron microscopy) results have shown that Cr3Si powder samples consist of 50-150 lain particles and that tungsten silicide was formed at the surface of tungsten cathode after chrome-free system electrolysis.展开更多
