In situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction study of the electrochemical reduction of SiO2 in molten CaCl2

In situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the electrochemical reduction of SiO2 to Si in molten CaCl2 at 1123 K for the first time. The present technique enabled direct determination of intermediate products at high temperature, without cooling and washing treatments. Based on th...
