Title:
ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE DIAMOND ELECTRODE, AND SULFURIC ACID ELECTROLYSIS METHOD AND SULFURIC ACID ELECTROLYSIS APPARATUS EACH UTILIZING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/086352
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention is an electrically conductive diamond electrode which comprises an electrically conductive base and an electrically conductive diamond layer coated on the surface of the electrically conductive base, and which is characterized in that 1) the electrically conductive diamond layer has a thickness of 1-25 μm, 2) a potential window fulfills formula (1), and 3) the ratio (A/B) of a diamond component (A) to a non-diamond component (B) as determined by Raman spectroscopy fulfills formula (2): (1) 2.1 V ≤ potential window ≤ 3.5 V; (2) 1.5 < A/B ≤ 6.5 (A = the intensity at a wave number of 1300 cm-1 in Raman spectroscopy; B = the intensity at a wave number of 1500 cm-1 in Raman spectroscopy). The present invention provides: an electrically conductive diamond electrode in which the thickness of an electrically conductive diamond layer and the crystallinity of electrically conductive diamond are regulated so as to achieve high electrode durability and high oxidizable substance production efficiency at a low cell voltage; and a sulfuric acid electrolysis method and a sulfuric acid electrolysis apparatus, each of which utilizes the electrode.
