Abstract

For the first time, the possibility of transforming sodium (Na) atoms into magnesium (Mg) during electrolysis was experimentally investigated. The experiments were carried out in an electrolyzer with aluminum electrodes using an aqueous solution of sodium chloride as the electrolyte. The electrolyzer was powered by electrical pulses with steep fronts. The chemical composition of the cathode surface was analyzed before and after exposure of the electrolyzer to short electrical pulses using a scanning electron microscope. As a result of the exposure, a significant accumulation of the chemical element magnesium was observed on certain areas of the aluminum cathode surface. The physical mechanism behind the appearance of the new element (Mg) is discussed.
