2.1 Use in electrochemistry
In electrochemistry, carbon and/or graphite are used for their chemical inertia and low polarization.
SCROLL TO TOP2.1.1 Electrolysis and steelmaking
Electrolysis can be carried out cold (K, Na, Cl 2 , F 2 ...) or at high temperature (igneous electrolysis: Al, Mg, Ce, Na).
The carbon electrodes used for aluminum electrolysis take advantage...
