Abstract
To improve the durability as well as to reduce the cost of anodes, the IrO2+MnO2 composite coating anodes for NaClO production were prepared by thermal decomposition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) were carried out to investigate the morphologies, element distribution, and microstructure. The anodic polarization curves were employed to study the effect of sintering temperature on the Cl2 evolution reaction (CER) of the electrodes. The accelerated life tests (ALT) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurement (EIS) were utilized to investigate the stability. The rules of NaClO production were also studied by the static electrolysis experiment. The results indicate that sintering temperature has a significant influence on the CER properties as well as the ALT values of the electrodes. The electrode prepared at 400°C has the best CER properties and the longest ALT value.
