Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 70 words
Chlorine resistant sintered electrode for aqueous electrolysis comprising a base formed of passivatable material, and a covering layer of activating substance at least partly covering said base, the material of said base consisting fo titanium oxide TiO x , wherein x × 0.25 to 1.50, said material of said base having been sintered by heating in an inert gas atmosphere to a temperature of from 1200° C to 1400° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 70 words
Chlorine resistant sintered electrode for aqueous electrolysis comprising a base formed of passivatable material, and a covering layer of activating substance at least partly covering said base, the material of said base consisting fo titanium oxide TiO x , wherein x × 0.25 to 1.50, said material of said base having been sintered by heating in an inert gas atmosphere to a temperature of from 1200° C to 1400° C.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 11 words
Electrode according to claim 1 wherein x × 0.42 to 0.6.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 28 words
Electrode according to claim 1 wherein 20 to 50% by volume of said base is formed with pores having a mean diameter of from 0.5 to 5 mm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
Electrode according to claim 1 wherein said electrode base has a surface facing away from said covering layer, said surface having a layer of sintered titanium.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 32 words
Electrode according to claim 1 having a rectangular bottom surface formed with a series of slots of uniformly increasing depth extending from one side of the electrode to the opposite side thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 42 words
Electrode according to claim 5 wherein said slots are defined by surfaces of the electrode extending vertically along respective edges formed at the bottom surface thereof, said edges formed between said vertical surfaces of said slots and said bottom surface being rounded.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
Electrode according to claim 5 including a shield mounted at the side of the electrode at which said slots are deepest and extending a given vertical distance so as to be just below a desired electrolyte surface level.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 17 words
Electrode according to claim 1 having a top surface inclined with respect to the bottom surface thereof.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 34 words
Electrode according to claim 1 wherein said electrode base is formed with an upper, a lower and at least one lateral surface, at least one of said surfaces being formed with rib-like re-enforcing members.
