The honeycomb-like structures were made up of holes, formed from detached hydrogen bubbles, surrounded by walls built up of thin intertwined needles. For the first time, it was shown that the honeycomb-like structures can be obtained by molten salt electrolysis and not exclusively by electrolysis from aqueous electrolytes. Analogies with the processes of honeycomb-like metal structures formation from aqueous electrolytes are presented and discussed. Rules established for the formation of these structures from aqueous electrolytes, such as the increase of number of holes, the decrease of holes size and coalescence of neighbouring hydrogen bubbles observed with increasing cathodic potential, appeared to be valid for the electrolysis of the molten salt used.</p>}, number={12}, journal={Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society}, author={Vukićević, Nataša and Cvetković, Vesna S. and Nikolić, Nebojša D. and Branković, Goran and Jovićević, Jovan}, year={2018}, month={Dec.}, pages={1351–1362} }
