The effect of discharge performance on aluminum anode in NaCl solution

The discharge performance on aluminum anode was studied by the EIS from there points of view: The inhibitor concentration, the electrolyte temperature and the PH of electrolyte containing CeCl3. The optimum discharge conditions of aluminum anode were determined as: The rare earth inhibitor concentration of CeCl3 is 500 mg/L, the electrolyte temperature is 30°C, the PH of electrolyte containing CeCl3 is 5-6. Discharge curve showed that the discharge performance of aluminum anode in 3.5% NaCl with inhibitor was better than in the blank 3.5% NaCl solution.
