Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, there are many improvement methods to improve the service life of titanium-based tin dioxide electrodes, which are mainly divided into the following three categories: one is to dope other metal or non-metal elements in the antimony-doped tin dioxide layer, but there are some limitations, such as The incorporation of elements such as ruthenium and iridium will significantly reduce the oxygen evolution potential of the electrode, affecting the use efficiency and electrocatalytic activity of the electrode; the second is to insert an intermediate layer between the tin dioxide layer and the titanium substrate, which also has the above problems; Surface modification of the titanium matrix itself, such as the introduction of anodized titanium dioxide nanotubes, but due to the limitations of the anodic oxidation method itself, the preparation of large-area uniform nanotubes is difficult, so this technology can only be used to prepare electrodes with small surface areas , there is still a distance from the actual industrial application
Therefore, so far, various electrode preparation technologies to improve the service life of titanium-based tin dioxide electrodes still have their own defects.

Abstract

The invention discloses a fabrication method of a long-life titanium base electrode, which comprises the steps of fabricating a titanium oxide layer on a titanium substrate by a dipping-thermal decomposition method, reducing the titanium oxide layer in a reducing atmosphere, synchronously depositing a tin metal simple substance and an antimony metal simple substance in proportion on the surface of the titanium oxide layer by an electrodeposition method, and conducting thermal oxidation to allow an antimony doped tin oxide layer to be tightly combined with the titanium oxide layer connected with the titanium substrate to form a solid solution structure. The prepared titanium base tin dioxide electrode has the advantages of long service life, high oxygen evolution potential, high electrocatalytic activity, high generation efficiency of ozone from electrolyzed water, and the like. In addition, the cost of the fabrication process is low, the requirement of equipment is low, the operation is easy to control, and industrial mass production is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of electrochemical catalytic electrodes, and relates to a preparation method of a long-life titanium-based electrode. Background technique [0002] Metal oxide anode, also known as DSA (Dimensionally Stable Anode), or DSE (Dimensionally Stable Electrode), was invented by H.B.Beer and was first industrialized by Italian De Nora Company in 1968 (Titanium Electrode Engineering, Beijing: Metallurgy Industrial Press, 2003). DSA is composed of a metal matrix and a surface active coating. The metal matrix acts as a skeleton and conducts electricity, and the surface active coating participates in the electrochemical reaction of the anode to play a catalytic and conductive role. At present, DSA has been widely used in the fields of chlor-alkali industry, electrolysis industry, electroplating industry, wastewater treatment, organic electrosynthesis and electrometallurgy. [0003] In the electrochemica...
