ELECTROCHEMICAL STUDIES IN THE SYNTHESIS OF N-F COMPOUNDS
Abstract
Work during the past quarter was devoted to the development of analytical methods for quantitative determination of N-F compounds and F2, and to the investigation of possible new electrode materials. Weight loss measurements, at open circuit and at constant anodic potential were performed on Incoloy 800, Inconel 600, and Ni-span-C 902. Weight loss rates generally increased with increasing iron content and decreasing nickel content on these alloys. Weight loss measurements and polarization studies were performed on nickel in HF at various water concentrations. The addition of at least 10 to the minus two power H2O reduced corrosion rates of nickel at 6.0 volts. The polarization curves showed a peak dependent on the water concentration on the initial run and a water-dependent plateau in the successive curves.
