✦ Synopsis

The electrochemical behaviour of different graphites in molten lithium chloroaluminate electrolyte was studied using the potentiodynamic method. The oxidation currents observed at potentials below chlorine evolution are related to the oxidation of graphite during aluminium chloride intercalation.
