Abstract
The correlation between the physical and electrochemical properties of products of the partial reduction of copper ions is studied. The prod ucts represent a heterogeneous system containing the copper metal and oxide-hydroxide compounds of Cu(I) of nonstoichiometric composition. L ithium ions are found to be more mobile in copper oxides of nonstoichi ometric composition, compared with stoichiometric oxides. It is shown that the deviation of oxide composition from stoichiometry and the rat e of mass transfer can be purposefully varied by the conditions under which the compound is electrochemically synthesized.
