摘　　要：CeCo5 alloy was prepared from the mixture of cobalt oxide （Co3O4） and cerium oxide （CeO2） powders by electro-deoxidation in molten calcium chloride. The effects of the cell voltage and sintering temperature on the electrolysis process were reported. The electro-deoxidation mechanism was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization using a molybdenum cavity electrode in conjunction with characterization of the products from constant voltage electrolysis under different conditions by XRD and SEM. The electrochemical property of CeCo5 alloy was investigated by cyclic voltammetry measurements. The results show that the electro-deoxidation rate increases with increasing the cell voltage and decreasing the sintering temperature. The pure CeCo5 can be prepared by direct electro-deoxidation of mixed CeO2/Co3O4 pellets sintered at 850 °C when the cell voltage of 3.1 V is applied. The electro-deoxidation proceeds by the simultaneous reduction of Co3O4 to Co and reduction of CeO2 to CeOCl, followed by CeOCl reduction on the pre-formed Co to form CeCo5 alloy which shows a good cycling stability.在CaCl2熔盐中,以Co3O4和CeO2混合氧化物为原料,采用熔盐电脱氧法制备CeCo5合金。研究电解电压、烧结温度等对电脱氧过程的影响。采用SEM和XRD对不同条件下制备的产物微观形貌和相组成进行表征,并结合动电位极化法,研究电脱氧机理。采用循环伏安法研究材料的电化学性能。结果表明:随着电解电压的升高和烧结温度的降低,电脱氧速度逐渐加快。在850°C下烧结的混合氧化物试样,在3.1V电压下电解,可制备出纯相的CeCo5合金。在电脱氧过程中,Co3O4还原成单质Co,CeO2还原成CeOCl,CeOCl在单质Co表面还原而形成CeCo5合金。所制备的合金表现出良好的电化学循环稳定性。
