Abstract

This study, electrolytic behavior of Thulium and Tm-Bi ion system was studied. The electrochemical behavior of Tm was studied in $LiCl-KCl-TmCl_3$ molten salts using electrochemical techniques Cyclic Voltammetry on tungsten electrodes at 773K. During the process of CV and SWV, intermetallic compound were observed Bi-Tm. Further study, in order to determine clarity of diffusion coefficient in this experiment, we will compare result of electrochemistry method and we also need to quantitative research.
