CATHODE FOR USE IN ELECTROLYTIC CELL

摘要

CPR 36687 CATHODE FOR USE IN ELECTROLYTIC CELL Durable low hydrogen over-voltage cathodes bearing a coating which has an outer layer which comprises at least 10% cerium oxide by XRD and at least one non-noble Group 8 metal. Such cathodes may be prepared by a process involving at least the steps of coating a metallic substrate with an interim coating comprising cerium oxide and at least one non-noble Group 8 metal by plasma spraying an intermetallic compound of cerium and nickel and heating the interim coating in a non-oxidising atmosphere.
