مستخلص: Influence of Nd2O3 in LiF-NdF3-Nd2O3 melt on carbon anode oxidation was investigated by infra-red spectroscopy and electrochemical techniques to prevent CFX(g) formation during Nd metal production. A gas extractor device was developed to provide fast analysis of the electrochemically produced gas: the carbon anode was only oxidized into CO2(g) until a critical current density was reached. For higher values, CF4(g) and C2F6(g) were also produced. It was associated to diffusion limited current density of NdOF5 4−. To avoid CFX(g) production during the process, the influence of Nd2O3 and temperature on this limiting current density was determined by steady-state voltammetry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
