Abstract
The transference number of cations in solid potassium chloride at 600°C has been found to be 0.88 in accordance with previous experiments of Tubandt, Reinhold, and Liebold. Addition of strontium chloride causes increase of the transference number approaching unity. Addition of potassium oxide and sodium sulfide, respectively, lowers somewhat the transference number of cations and accordingly increases the transference number of anions. These results are in accordance with the Schottky disorder model, but the presence of interstitial cations apart from cation and anion vacancies cannot be ruled out.Keywords
