Electrochemical reduction of boron from boron containing fluoroborate species present in KCl (81.54 mol%)-KF (18.45 mol%)-NaBF 4 (1.67x10 -4 mol cm -4 ) melt on a platinum electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. These studies were carried out over the temperature range 1073 – 1123 K. Boron-containing electroactive species is shown to reduce quasi-reversibly at low scan rates ( 0.1 V s -1 ) through a single-step three-electron
