Estimating the term…
The present invention relates to a spherical electrode and to a spherical electrode cell, and more particularly, to a method for forming an electrode on an ion-exchange resin or forming an electrolysis cell on an ion-exchange resin. The spherical electrode or spherical electrolysis cell of the present invention can be used for: electrolysis reactors, for example in hydrolysis for producing hydrogen and oxygen gas; for the production of oxidants by means of the electrolysis of electrolytes such as a sodium chloride solution and sodium chlorite; or fuel cells that generate electricity using oxygen and hydrogen.
An electrode for an electrochemical cell, comprising an ion-exchange resin matrix and a first electrode layer coated on a surface of the ion-exchange resin matrix, characterized in that the electrode has a shape selected from the group consisting of spheres, granules, beads, grains and fibers.
An electrochemical cell comprising an ion-exchange resin matrix, a first electrode layer coated on a surface of the ion-exchange resin matrix, and a second electrode layer coated on the surface of the ion-exchange resin matrix, characterized in that the electrode has a shape selected from the group consisting of spheres, granules, beads, grains and fibers, and the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer correspond to an anode and a cathode, respectively, or to a cathode and an anode, respectively.
