SILVER-GAS DIFFUSION ELECTRODE FOR USE IN AIR CONTAINING CO2 AND A METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the production of a gas diffusion electrode from a silver catalyst on an PTFE-substrate. The pore system of the silver catalyst is filled with a moistening filling agent. A dimensionally stable solid body having a particle size greater than the particle size of the silver catalyst is mixed with the silver catalyst. Said compression-stable mass is formed in a first calendar in order to form a homogenous catalyst band. In a second calendar, an electoconductive discharge material is embossed in the catalyst band, and heating takes places between the first and the second calendar by means of a heating device, wherein at least parts of the moistened filling agent are eliminated. The invention also relates to a gas diffusion electrode which is produced according to said method.
