Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide an insoluble electrode, excellent in corrosion resistance even in the case of electrolysis with high current density and durable in a long use, and the producing method thereof. CONSTITUTION:A valve metal layer 2 is formed on the surface of an electrode base material 1 and the insoluble electrode has a valve metal 2 heat-treated at 400-800 deg.C for >=0.5hr and <=10hr and an Ir oxide layer 7 between the valve metal layer 2 and IrO2 coating film layer 4, and the IrO2 coating film layer 4 is a dense layer or two layers of the dense layer and a porous layer. As a result, the valve metal and the Ir oxide layer increase the adhesive strength between both layers of the metal layer and the IrO2 layer and the oxidation progress of the valve metal layer from the boundary surface of the coating film is suppressed. Thus, the electrode is durable in a long use.

The corrosion mechanism of this electrode will be described with reference to FIG. Since the IrO 2 -containing layers 3 and 4 are formed by heat treatment of the solution, pores due to volatilization of the solution components are generated, and a hexagonal crack 5 is generated in the coating film due to the difference in thermal expansion between the valve metal layer and the IrO 2 layer. ing.

Therefore, the porosity of the coating is as large as 5 to 30%, the specific surface area is large, and the current density per unit area is low, so that the melting loss speed is slow, but the pores and cracks cause the formation of the valve metal layer 2. Direct energization occurs, the insulating oxide film 6 is formed on the surface of the valve metal layer, and further the oxidation of the valve metal layer progresses through the interface between the valve metal layer and the film,
The voltage rises and the electrode function is lost. As a countermeasure against this, it is necessary to produce a homogeneous coating film without pores and cracks.

The reason for this is that the IrO 2 reactive sputter coating and the IrO 2 reactive vapor deposition coating are easily peeled off by increasing the film thickness, and the optimum film thickness for production is several hundred to several thousand Å, which is very thin. This is because the specific surface area is smaller than that of the baked IrO 2 coating, the current density per unit area is large, and the melting speed is fast.
