| Zusammenfassung: | A process for the production of metallic magnesium wherein a molten salt bath containing sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride and magnesium fluoride is electrolytically decomposed with a cathode and an anode and wherein there is added periodically inorganic salts of molybdenum or tungsten, metallic molybdenum or tungsten, or mixtures thereof in sufficient amounts to coat the cathode surface with molybdenum or tungsten and thereby increase the recovery of magnesium. |
