Electrode for flow-through type electrolytic cell

摘要

An electrode for a flow-through type electrolytic cell which comprises: a frame spacer formed with a plate made of an insulating material and textile fabric made of carbon fibers disposed in the inner space of the spacer; said spacer and said textile fabric being held between a membrane and a collector plate so that an reactant flows through the inside the texture of the above textile fabric in one direction or in the reverse direction; said textile fabric being composed of thicker yarns of not finer than 5 metric counts and yarns finer than said thicker yarns which are disposed so as to cross said thicker yarns; and said textile fabric being fixed so that the thicker yarns are substantially in parallel with the flow direction of an aqueous solution of an reactant.
