Yes solution chemistry (copper/ferrous ion conc, pH, grain refining agent conc etc) is one of the factors I intend to check. They have a direct effect on the quality and morphology of the copper deposit. The temperature and the current density (from Faraday's law of electrolysis) have a major...
Dear cloa thank you for your reply.
I was torn between posting this on the metallurgy forum or the corrosion engineering forum, decided to post on corrosion forum as I thought members would be more familiar with current densities here. Sorry for posting in the wrong forum.
I am undergoing...
Dear All,
[Cross posting from Corrosion Engineering section as I didn't get any replies there]
I would like to verify my calculation of cathode current density in an electro-refining cell.
It is refining cast copper anodes from scrap copper in a CuSO4/H2SO4 bath.

Dear All,
I would like to verify my calculation of cathode current density in an electro-refining cell.
It is refining cast copper anodes from scrap copper in a CuSO4/H2SO4 bath.
Each tank has a set of impure anodes and copper cathodes forming cells in parallel.
The current passing into a...
