Abstract

Electrochemical sensors for lithium and oxygen control in lithium lead blends are being developed. Extension of the initially high operation temperature range of 673-773 K to a lower temperature range of 523-673 K could be achieved. For this purpose systematic e.m.f. versus temperature test campaigns were run with particular attention to the effect of temperature on the response time. Finally, a monitoring system is presented, which allows full chemical characterization of the lithium lead blends and which includes a dedicated data acquisition system.
