【Abstract】 The RE-Fe-B system has received much attention because the Nd-Fe-B permanent magnet is shown to possess the highest known energy product. Cerium or lanthanum are cheaper than neodymium. It is interested to use Ce or La instead of Nd. We have investigated the electrodeposition of Ce-Fe alloy in order to supply the raw material for the preparation of Ce-Fe-B magnet.The cyclic voltammetry, charge curve and decay curve were used to study the electrode process of Ce（Ⅲ） reduced on iron electrode in molten NaCl-KCl-CeCl₃ from 700℃ to 850℃. The first reduction peak and the second wave start at -2.75V and -3.02V （700℃） respectively. The plateaus potentials on the charge curve are in concordance with the corresponding starting wave potentials of the voltammogram. The plot of E versus log（（I_p-I）/I） is linear. Then value of three was calculated from the slope. The Ce-Fe alloy rich in Ce can be obtained by electrolysis with iron electrode in molten NaCl-KCl-CeCl₃. The Ce-Fe alloy is composed of CeFe₂ and Ce determined by X-ray diffraction. Based on the results, we can consider that the metallic compound CeFe₂ is formed first, and then the metallic Ce deposits when Ce（Ⅲ） is reduced on iron electrode.更多还原
