2. Description of the Related Art As a material of an electrode material used in the field of the electrolysis industry as described above, graphite has conventionally been generally used in consideration of conductivity, corrosion resistance and the like. However, in recent years, Ti has come to be used as an electrode material from the viewpoints of workability, economy, and the like in addition to corrosion resistance, and is particularly widely used as an electrode for soda electrolysis and manganese dioxide production.

[0003] However, when a Ti electrode material is used for the cathode, hydrogen is generated by a reduction reaction and Ti absorbs hydrogen, and the resulting hydrogen embrittlement causes deterioration of the mechanical properties of the electrode material. The fact is that the Ti electrode material is used only for the anode electrode. On the other hand, T
Even when the i-electrode material is used as the anode electrode, Ti
Since the passivation forms an insulating Ti oxide film on the surface of the electrode material, the current efficiency decreases with time. Therefore, it is necessary to periodically remove the oxide film by shot blasting or the like. Since the problem of such current efficiency is directly linked to the productivity of the electrolytic industry, the solution of this problem is very important.

By increasing the current density held by the passivation of Ti, it is intended to increase the current efficiency. On the contrary, the corrosion resistance of Ti deteriorates, and a portion where no potential is applied (splash zone) is corroded. Has the disadvantage of being shorter. In addition, elution of the additional element may cause impurities to be mixed into the electrolytic substance (product). Furthermore, in order for the above-mentioned additive elements to impart useful properties to the electrode material, it is necessary to add a considerably high concentration thereof, which has the disadvantage that the machinability of the electrode material deteriorates.

On the other hand, when a platinum group element is plated on Ti, it is difficult to obtain sufficient adhesion between the Ti and the plating layer, and the Ti is formed through defects such as pinholes in the plating layer.
There are drawbacks such as the possibility that the surface of the substrate is likely to corrode. Also, in the natural state of Ti, a dense oxide film is formed on the surface, and it is difficult to form a plating on the surface with good adhesion, and a complicated pretreatment for removing the oxide film is required.

Further, there is a possibility that the plating layer peels due to aging in the electrolytic bath, or that the contacting portion with the plating layer comes into contact with the solution due to defects or peeling, thereby promoting corrosion.

The electrode material according to the present invention is obtained by forming a concentration-enriched layer of a platinum group element on the surface layer of the electrode material by the above-described ion implantation technique. When such an ion implantation method is applied, a non-thermal equilibrium material layer is formed on the surface layer of Ti or a Ti-based alloy, and the surface layer is further oxidized to substantially eliminate problems such as adhesion and cracks. If a fine and pinhole-free surface treatment that does not contain is performed, the problems of the alloying method and the surface treatment by the thermal process that have been performed so far can be overcome, and characteristics that cannot be predicted by the conventional method can be obtained. In other words, even if the same element as the ion-implanted element is added and alloyed, and then oxidized,
Excellent corrosion resistance, high current efficiency and long life like the electrode material of the present invention cannot be achieved.

The present inventors have repeatedly conducted ion implantation experiments on various element ions. As a result, the formation of a concentration-enriched layer which significantly improves the corrosion resistance of Ti can be achieved by ion implantation of a platinum group element. Do you get it. Further, by superposing an oxidation treatment layer on the surface layer portion on which the concentration-enriched layer is formed, the characteristics as an electrode material are remarkably improved. By the combined treatment of the formation of the oxidized layer and the formation of the oxidized layer, the improvement effect was remarkably achieved as compared with the case of any one of the treatments alone, and the reliability thereof could be enhanced.

The electrode material according to the present invention exhibits the above-mentioned effects. In order to exhibit this effect, the amount of the platinum group element implanted by ion implantation is 1 × 10 15 ions / cm 2. It is preferable that it is above. However, in the case of excessive implantation, the surface cutting phenomenon due to the sputtering phenomenon becomes remarkable according to the implantation energy, so that the implantation energy and the implantation amount must be carefully determined. Generally, in the energy range used for ion implantation, the ion implantation amount is preferably 1 × 10 18 ions / cm 2 or less. In addition, the effect of the composite treatment as described above can be obtained only when the depth or spread of the concentration layer and the oxide layer are completely out of order, and only the same effect as when one of the treatments is performed. The concentration-enriched layer of the platinum group element needs to be appropriately formed in the depth direction, and for that purpose, it is necessary to select an implantation angle, an implantation energy, an implantation amount, and the like. In order to sufficiently exhibit the effects of the present invention, it is desirable that the concentration-enriched layer and the oxide layer are completely overlapped. However, even if a part of the layer is overlapped, the improvement effect can be expected.
Further, in the oxidized layer where the concentration-enriched layer and the oxidized layer overlap, at least an oxide of Ti is formed. Has become.
