ANODE ELECTRODE FOR ELECTROLYZER PRODUCING FLUORINE Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: production of fluorine. SUBSTANCE: invention refers to carbon electrodes used in electrolyzers producing fluorine, to production of fluorine by electrolysis and to reactors used in fluorination. Proposed carbon electrodes intended for production of fluorine by electrolysis of molten electrolyte from KF•2HF. Invention provides for joint operation of electrolyzer for production of fluorine with reactor of direct fluorination. EFFECT: increased resistance of material of anode which provides for better distribution of current inside body of anode, prevention of spontaneous formation of hydrogen fluoride from hydrogen formed on cathode and fluorine formed on anode. 10 cl, 7 dwg
