In an argon atmosphere, there is a pure platinum crucible that is used to heat Calcium Chloride salts to 850 deg C. After it is heated, pure chlorine gas is bubbled through the molten salt to remove CaO impurities. The heating method is by induction heating.
My questions/concerns: Since we are using induction heating, is there a risk that the induced current will oxidize the platinum and result in producing platinum chlorides.
Also, is there an analytical method to estimate how much platinum chloride will be produced through natural reactions (no induced currents)?
