<p>An electrolytic cell, suitable for use in electrolyzing alkali metal halide brines, which comprises a cell body having an anode compartment containing an anode, a cathode compartment containing a cathode and at least one buffer compartment between said anode and cathode compartments, said compartments being separated from each other by a carrier located between the anode and buffer compartments, cathode and buffer compartments and between individual buffer compartments, said barrier being substantially impervious to fluids and gases, selected from a hydrolyzed copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and a sulfonated perfluorovinyl ether having the formula: FSO2CF2CF2OCF(CF3)CF2OCF=CF2 said copolymer having an equivalent weight of from about 900 to 1600, and a sulfostyrenated perfluorinated ethylene propylene polymer.</p> |
