OXYGEN GAS DIFFUSION CATHODE, ELECTROLYTIC BATH EQUIPPED WITH SAME, PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF CHLORINE GAS, AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE

摘要

The current invention is to provide an oxygen gas diffusion cathode for brine electrolysis which reduces an initial electrolysis voltage and is excellent in the durability against short-circuit, and an electrolytic cell and an electrolytic method using the same. The oxygen gas diffusion cathode for brine electrolysis includes a gas diffusion layer 13 and a reaction layer 14 on one surface of an electro-conductive substrate 12, and an electro-conductive layer 15 on the opposite surface thereof. The present oxygen gas diffusion cathode reduces the resistance of the electro-conductive substrate 12 and supplies uniform current by mounting the electro-conductive layer 15.
