Abstract 1. A METHOD OF MAKING AN ELECTODE FOR USE IN AN ELECTROYLTE COMPRISING THE STEPS OF PLACING AT LEAST A PART OF THE SURFACE OF AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE BASE CORRESPONDING TO THE WORKING AREA OF THE ELECTRODE IN AN ELECTROLYTE HAVING THEREIN AT LEAST ONE DISSOLVED SALT OF A FILM FORMING METAL AND AT LEAST ONE FURTHER DISSOLVED SALT OF A METAL OTHER THAN A FILM FORMING METAL TAKEN FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF GOLD, SILVER, PLATINUM, PALLADIUM, IRIDIUM, RUTHENIUM, OSMIUM, RHODIUM, IRON, NICKEL, CHROMIUM, COPPER, LEAD AND MANGANESE WHICH WILL DEPOSIT ANODICALLY AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE OXIDE DURING ELECTROLYSIS, THE BASE HAVING AT LEAST THE OUTER SURFACE PORTION THEREOF CORRESPONDING TO THE WORKING AREA OF THE ELECTRODE MADE OF AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE OXIDE DURING ELECELECTROLYTE IN WHICH THE ELECTRODE IS TO BE USED, PASSING A CURRENT THROUGH THE ELECTROLYTE AND THE ELECTRODE FOR DEPOSITING ON SAID PART OF THE SURFACE OF THE ELECTRODE A MIXED MATERIAL OF AN OXIDE OF A FILM FORMING METAL AND AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE OXIDE OF THE METAL OTHER THAN A FILM FORMING METAL, AND HEATING THE THUS TREATED ELECTRODE AT A TEMPERATURE OF FROM 200 TO 600*C. FOR A TIME OF AT LEAST 5 MIN.
