IMPROVED RHODIUM ELECTROCATALYST AND METHOD OF PREPARATION

摘要

An improved novel rhodium sulphide catalyst for reduction of oxygen in industrial electrolyzers which is highly resistant towards corrosion and poisoning by organic species, thus making it particularly suitable for use in aqueous hydrochloric acid electrolysis, also when technical grade acid containing organic contaminants is employed. By modifying the method of preparation, the activity and consistency of the catalyst is substantially improved.
