Abstract:The electrochemical separation of lithium isotopes has been revisited during the last years due to their applications in different aspects of nuclear technology, from the use of 7 Li in the chemical treatment of pressurized water reactors to the production of tritium from 6 Li for fusion nuclear plants. However, little is still known about the role played by each of the physicochemical variables in the separation factor, such as the applied overpotential, the electrolytes, or the materials used as electrodes. … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
