N2  - Distribution coefficients for iodine in the propanenitrile-water solvent system were measured as a function of the nature and concentration of various added metal halides. BothNaCl and KI at concentrations between 1 and 3 M had a positive effect on the distribution coefficient. Zinc halides, particularly zinc iodide, tended to lower the distribution coefficient significantly and also raised the conductivity of the organic phase. These studies suggest that the two-phase solvent system is suitable for application in a zinc-iodine battery.
