Consultation on electrolysis issues
Thread Content
Question: 1. In a system containing carbonate and ammonia ions, what is the reason for the poor electrical conductivity when copper is electrolyzed directly? Adding something can change the electrolysis effect. 2. Can nickel be electrolyzed directly under alkaline conditions?
Under the conditions of weak acids and bases, their ionization capacity is poor, and the electrical conductivity of the solutions is also low.
Sulfuric acid can be added to increase the electrical conductivity of the solution
Adding sodium sulfate or potassium sulfate is both possible
Generally, the effect is not good under alkaline conditions; considering performing it under acidic conditions might be an option
If the poster is trying to extract nickel from acidic cyclohexane using electrodes, they can contact me. Our company specializes in titanium-based lead dioxide electrodes, which are now widely used in the nickel extraction industry.
