Abstract

Abstract An electrode for use in the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of a metal halide, the electrode comprising an electrically conductive substrate and, formed thereon, a coating comprising (1) 50 to 95 mole % of platinum and (2)(a) 5 to 50 mole % of tin oxide, or (b) 5 to 50 mole % of tin oxide and cobalt oxide, wherein the tin oxide is present in an amount of at least 5 mole % and the cobalt oxide is present in an amount up to 20 mole %; and a process for producing the above-described electrode.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 129 words
A process for producing an electrode for use in the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of a metal halide, which comprises: coating a solution containing a platinum compound and a tin compound, and optionally a cobalt compound, on an electrically conductive substrate, and heat-treating the coated substrate in an oxidizing atmosphere thereby to form a coating on the substrate comprising: (1) 50 to 95 mole % of platinum, (2)(a) 5 to 50 mole % of tin oxide, or (b) 5 to 50 mole % of tin oxide and cobalt oxide, wherein the tin oxide is present in an amount of at least 5 mole % and the cobalt oxide is present in an amount up to 20 mole %, the total of (1) and (2) being 100 mole %.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 129 words
A process for producing an electrode for use in the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of a metal halide, which comprises: coating a solution containing a platinum compound and a tin compound, and optionally a cobalt compound, on an electrically conductive substrate, and heat-treating the coated substrate in an oxidizing atmosphere thereby to form a coating on the substrate comprising: (1) 50 to 95 mole % of platinum, (2)(a) 5 to 50 mole % of tin oxide, or (b) 5 to 50 mole % of tin oxide and cobalt oxide, wherein the tin oxide is present in an amount of at least 5 mole % and the cobalt oxide is present in an amount up to 20 mole %, the total of (1) and (2) being 100 mole %.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 44 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the coating solution contains 10 to 90 mole % of the platinum compound as platinum, 10 to 90 mole % of the tin compound as tin, and up to 20 mole % of the cobalt compound as cobalt.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The process of claim 1 or 2, wherein the tin compound in the coating solution is a tin chloride.
