Production of halogens by electrolysis of alkali metal halides in an electrolysis cell having catalytic electrodes bonded to the surface of a solid polymer electrolyte membrane

摘要

Chlorine is generated by electrolyzing aqueous alkali metal chloride in a cell wherein the anode and cathode are separated by and in contact with an ion exchange diaphragm and wherein the anode and/or cathode contains particles of an electroconductive catalytic material along with particles of an electroconductive extender bonded to the membrane.
