Abstract
This paper is intended as an introductory guide to experimental techniques which have been found useful in electrochemical studies at temperatures high enough to pose problems of containment of the solution vapor pressure. There are compelling reasons, both fundamental and technological, for extending the temperature range over which meaningful electrochemical measurements can be made. On the one hand, many of the applications of electrochemistry in fields of technological interest are concerned with the properties of electrolyte solutions, and with the mechanism of electrode processes, at temperatures considerably higher than those at which electrochemical studies are usually carried out. The capital-intensive electrical power industries, both nuclear and conventional, and the chemical process industries provide frequent examples of problems where the basic electrochemical data available are inadequate for an understanding of the electrode-electrolyte interactions of interest.
