- Abstract
We report a method for preparing uranium trichloride, UCl3, by reacting ZnCl2 with U in a molten LiCl-KCl eutectic salt at 500 °C. Cyclic voltammetry indicated the formation of UCl3 as the reaction proceeded. After 30 h, the reaction was terminated and the final product was confirmed to contain 13.2 wt% UCl3-LiCl-KCl salt by the ICP-OES method.
