Method for the preparation of iron electrodes

摘要

A method for preparing iron electrodes is provided which includes mixing particulate iron such as iron powder, iron oxide or iron hydroxide with an organic moldable resin and, preferably, carbon black. The mixture is molded into the desired electrode configuration and the molded electrode is heated in an inert atmosphere to at least 950 DEG C. to carbonize said resin. The electrode may be thereafter activated by use of sulfur compound or the like.
