Abstract
An electrolytic cell comprises intercalated finger-shaped electrodes each disposed through a cation exchange membrane, in which said cation exchange membrane constitutes a cylinder or envelope enclosing a finger-shaped anode or cathode A flare is formed at one end or each end of the cylinder or at the open end of the envelope. The flare is joined with a flange to form a unitary cation exchange membrane-flange structure which liquid-tightly divides an anode compartment and a cathode compartment.
