ANODE WITH ENHANCED DURABILITY AND METHOD FOR MAKING SAME

摘要

An anode with enhanced durability for use in electrochemical processes is disclosed. The anode consists of a substrate made of at least one metal compound and provided with an outer tantalum surface coated with an electrocatalytic iridium oxide coating, and has a standard lifetime, as measured in test A, longer than 14 h.m<2>.g<-1>, preferably longer than 20 h.m<2>.g<-1>, and more preferably longer than 25 h.m<2>.g<-1>.
