Abstract
The invention relates to an electrode for electrolysis, whose front side comprises a plurality of substantially parallel channels defined by substantially parallel threads of electrically conducting material, which are attached to and in electric contact with the underlying electrode structure. Moreover, the invention relates to a method of producing an electrode, an electrolytic cell comprising an electrode according to the invention, and the use of such an electrode in electrolysis.
Claims13
An electrode for electrolysis, comprising a front side having an electrolytically active portion and having a plurality of substantially parallel channels defined by substantially parallel threads of electrically conducting material, said conducting material is attached to and in electric contact with an underlying electrode structure comprising through openings.
An electrolytic cell including at least one electrode comprising a front side having an electrolytically active portion and having a plurality of substantially parallel channels defined by substantially parallel threads of electrically conducting material, said conducting material is attached to and in electric contact with an underlying electrode structure comprising through openings.
A method for performing electrolysis, including the steps of applying electric current to an electrode having a front side having an electrically active portion and with a plurality of substantially parallel channels structure.
