... diagram of cell structure with anode A1 and cathode K1 is shown in Fig. 8. The elec- trolyte used during the tests was molten sodium hydroxide or eutectic mixture of NaOH-KOH (54-36 mol%). As the fuel, there was used C-3014 activated carbon. The determined character- istics of cells with two different electrolytes at 773 K indicated that the voltage of the unloaded cell working with NaOH electrolyte was ...
