Introduction
The ZYLAB Vacuum Molten Salt Electrolysis Furnace is a high-performance system specifically designed for molten salt electrochemical processes. Built for advanced research in electrometallurgy, high-temperature electrolysis, and ionic conductivity studies, this furnace provides a stable and controllable environment for precision electrochemical reactions at elevated temperatures.
Molten salts, as high-temperature ionic conductors, offer a wide electrochemical window and fast reaction kinetics—making them ideal electrolytes for electrochemical metallurgy. The electrolysis of aluminum is one of the most successful examples of this technology.
Key Features
High-Temperature Operation: Capable of reaching up to 1200°C, suitable for most molten salt systems including chlorides, fluorides, and carbonates.
Stable Power Control: Equipped with a non-contact thyristor control module for smooth, precise operation.
Uniform Heating Design: Bottom and annular side heating with embedded alloy heating wires ensures excellent temperature uniformity.
Energy-Efficient Insulation: Built with vacuum-formed ceramic insulation, reducing thermal losses and power consumption.
Robust Electrolysis Chamber: Made from 310S stainless steel, resistant to oxidation and corrosion under harsh electrochemical conditions.
Vacuum & Gas Atmosphere Compatible: Integrated vacuum port (KF25) and gas inlet/outlet connections for controlled atmosphere processing.
Water-Cooled Seal Structure: Extends seal life and ensures vacuum integrity during prolonged high-temperature operation.
Multiple Electrode Ports: Flexible electrode terminal configuration for different electrolysis setups.
