Separating web - electrolytic compartment frames assembly for electrolytic apparatuses

摘要

An assembly of electrolyte compartment frames and a separating web for a filter press type of bipolar electrolytic apparatus includes gasketing material between the frames and the web near the ends of the web and a recess in such frames at an end of the web so that when the web differentially expands with respect to the electrolyte compartment frames it may move past the gasketing material and into the recess, thereby preventing distortion of the web and the frames and maintaining a liquid-tight seal between them.
