Abstract

The method of cyclic voltammetry was used to study electroreduction of Si(IV) complexes in a molten salt of NaCl-KCl-NaF%)-K2SiF6. A two-stage discharge mechanism with a transfer of two electrons in each step is established. Herewith, the first electrochemical stage is complicated with the disproportionation reaction. Diffusion coefficients are determined for the Si(IV) and Si(II) complexes at the temperature of 1023 K.
