Diffusivity in Zinc Chloride‐Potassium Chloride Electrolyte

Abstract: Integral and differential salt diffusivities have been measured by the capillary method for electrolytes of interest to mass transfer of zinc in the zinc‐chlorine hydrate battery. No dependence of diffusivity on the concentration of ZnCl2 was found over the range 0.4–1.6MZnCl2 in 3.5MnormalKCl . The average diffusivity was 0.88×10−5 cm2 sec−1 at 26.5°C and 1.49×10−5 cm2 sec−1 at 47.5°C.

“…Therefore, diffusion coefficients measured by the capillarity method are much higher than values obtained electrochemically, since the latter values include a migration component [41]. Figure 1.9 compares the results of Hsie and Selman taken from polarographic measurements to those obtained by other methods [42][43][44][45].…”

“…Although less accurate than our optical measurements and mainly at different compositions, his diaphragm cell results at 0.5M ZnC12-3.0M KC1-H20 do agree well with ours. Some earlier diffusion measurements by Loftus et al (12) of ZnC12 in 3.5M KCI using the capillary method were improperly analyzed because the systems were treated as binaries, even though their "Zn diffusivity" is approximately the same as our Du.…”
