The electrochemical reduction of borosilicate glass in molten CaCl 2 at 1123 K was investigated. The behaviors of the constituent elements, ie, Si, B, Al, Na, and K, were estimated using potential–pO 2− diagrams constructed from the thermodynamic data for the species. The diagrams suggested that the first cathodic wave in the cyclic voltammogram results from the reduction of the B 2 O 3 component. The dissolution of the Na 2 O and K 2 O components, which was predicted from the diagrams, was confirmed by energy dispersive X-ray analysis of a borosilicate glass plate after immersion into molten CaCl 2 without electrolysis. The scanning electron microscopy/wavelength dispersive X-ray mappings and Raman spectrum for borosilicate glass reduced at 0.9 V vs. Ca 2+/Ca indicated that SiO 2 and B 2 O 3 are reduced to Si and B–Si compound. The formation of Ca–Al–O compounds owing to the increase of O 2− ions is suggested. The pO 2− range during electrolysis at 0.9 V was indicated to be 2.95–3.46.
