Title:
DIAMOND ELECTRODE, METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME, AND ELECTROLYTIC BATH
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/060807
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a diamond electrode (1) comprising a conductive silicon substrate (2) having a plurality of pores (4), and a conductive diamond (3) covering the conductive silicon substrate (2). Also disclosed is a method for producing such a diamond electrode. Further disclosed is an electrolytic bath comprising a cation-exchange membrane, an anode and a cathode respectively arranged in close contact with either side of the cation-exchange membrane, and collectors respectively arranged in contact with the anode and the cathode in an electrically feedable manner. In this electrolytic bath, at least the anode is composed of the diamond electrode and the collectors are composed of a conductive nonmetal through which the electrolyte liquid can be permeated. The electrolytic bath is low in the production cost, free from problems of warping and enables to obtain a high electrolysis efficiency. Namely, the present invention provides a diamond electrode having long life wherein separation between a conductive silicon substrate and a conductive diamond hardly occurs, a method for producing such a diamond electrode, and an electrolytic bath having high electrolysis efficiency and long life.
