Using A1 rod as anode, electrochemical formation of Sm-A1 alloy on Mo electrode from Sm203 in LiC1- KC1-MgC12-KF molten salts was investigated. Samarium mainly exists in the form of A12Sm in Li-Mg matrix, and the concentration of Sm in this alloy runs up to be as high as 34.7%. The reaction of samarium preparation appears like a replacement reaction. The new preparation method makes possible a high samarium content in electrochemical deposition of Sm-A1 alloy. Using A1 rod as anode consumedly decreased, the electrolytic cell voltage, and facilitated Sm deposition from Sm203. This preparation method uses 8m203 as raw materials to gain samarium alloy directly, which could revolutionize the industrial production of samarium alloys.展开更多
