To investigate the electrochemical co-reduction mechanism associated with the formation of Mg- Zr alloys, the electrochemical behaviors of Zr(IV) in KCl-MgCl₂-K₂ZrF₆ and KCl-MgCl₂-K₂ZrF₆-ZrO₂ melts were studied on a molybdenum electrode at 1023 K. Cyclic voltammograms (CVs) and square-wave voltammograms (SWVs) showed that Zr(IV) was reduced to Zr metal by a two-step mechanism consisting of the Zr(IV)/Zr(II) and Zr(II)/Zr(0) pairs in the KCl-MgCl₂-K₂ZrF₆ melt. The dissolution of ZrO₂ in the KCl-MgCl₂-K₂ZrF₆ melt was ascertained from CVs, while the Zr(IV) concentration in the melt was assessed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Mg-Zr alloys were obtained by galvanostatic electrolysis in KCl-MgCl₂- K₂ZrF₆- KF- ZrO₂ melts and subsequently characterized by X- ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The Zr concentrations in the alloys as determined by ICP-AES were as high as 7.2% (w). The formation of Mg-Zr alloys could be controlled by varying both the reaction time and the melt composition. These results confirm the feasibility of the direct electrolysis of ZrO₂ to obtain Mg-Zr alloys in KCl-MgCl₂-K₂ZrF₆-ZrO₂ melts.
