Electrolytic Extraction of Copper, Molybdenum and Rhenium from Molten Sulfide Electrolyte

The validity of the electrochemical series for metal sulfides decomposition in their standard state has been tested experimentally at 1500 K for La₂S₃, Cu₂S, MoS₂, and ReS₂ in a molten electrolyte with the following molar composition: (BaS)₅₄₋(Cu₂S)₃₁₋(La₂S₃)₁₅ (electrolyte B). Voltammetry measureme...
