Conductivities of AlCl3 ‐ Rich Molten AlCl3 ‐ LiCl Mixtures

The specific conductivities of molten mixtures have been measured as a function of composition (50–75 mole percent ) and temperature using an a‐c impedance bridge. These data are well represented by an empirical polynomial which expresses specific conductivity as a function of composition and temperature with an over‐all root mean square error of 0.5%. Equivalent conductivities are computed for the mixtures from the experimental data and densities previously measured in this laboratory. The computed conductivities displayed Arrhenius temperature dependence, enabling temperature independent activation energies to be derived.
