β¦ Synopsis
Kinetic parameters for the bromine evolution reaction on graphite and carbon electrodes in a silver bromide/sodium bromide melt have been determined at 750Β°C. Double pulse measurements show that the charge transfer reaction is fast with an exchange cd in the range of l-3A/cm2. Tafel slopes obtained from steady state cd/potential measurements show that the desorption of adsorbed bromine atoms is probably the rate controlling step of the electrode reaction. The adsorption then probably follows a Temkin-type isotherm.
Critical oarameters for the anode effect have been determined. The critical cd was found to be especially I& on polished graphite surfaces.

It is shown that it is possible to grow silver bromide crystals with definite crystallographic orientation by solidification of liquid silver bromide between mica and quartz plates by cooling the mica side. The orientation is (111). The maximum dimensions were 15 mni x 15 min x 1 mni. The surface i
