专利摘要:
1410313 Coated cathode DIAMOND SHAMROCK CORP 16 Jan 1974 [17 Jan 1973] 02051/74 Heading B2E [Also in Division C7] A coated foraminous cathode for use in a chlor-alkali electrolytic cell, which cathode bears on its active surfaces an adherent and dimensionally-stable diaphragm consisting of asbestos fibres having a discontinuous coating of fused thermoplastic fluorocarbon polymer to bind the fibres together, is made by (a) forming a slurry of fibrous asbestos and particulate thermoplastic fluorocarbon polymer in an aqueous medium, the polymer being present in an amount of 1-70% by weight of the polymer-asbestos total; (b) inserting the cathode to be coated into the slurry and depositing a uniform mixture of asbestos fibres and particulate polymer thereon by means of reduced pressure; (c) heating the coated cathode to a temperature sufficient to soften the polymer and allow it to bind adjacent fibres together without forming a continuous polymer coating over them; and (d) cooling the resultant coated cathode to room temperature. The cathode may be a perforated or expanded metal sheet or mesh, particularly a steel wire screen. The fluorocarbon polymer may be added to the slurry as fibres or granules and may comprise PTFE, polyvinyl fluoride, polyvinylidene fluoride, vinylidene fluoride-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer, perfluoroethylenepropylene copolymer, or a CF 2 =CFCl homopolymer or copolymer thereof with ethylene. The aqueous medium for the slurry may be water, brine, or synthetic or natural cell liquor containing NaCl and NaOH. A surfactant is normally included in the slurry. The coated cathode is usually dried by heating after step (b) and step (c) effected by heating at a higher temperature in an oven.

(54) METHOD FOR OBTAINING ASBESTIC DIAPHRAGM
I
The invention relates to a process for preparing the naphragms used in an electrolytic process for the production of chlorine and alkali.
A known method for producing an asbestos diaphragm involves applying asbestos to a cathode in a suspension containing latex and a colloidal solution of silicon silicate. After the asbestos mass is deposited on the cathode, it is treated with a solution of sodium hydroxide with sodium chloride and the diaphragm of prn IQ 80C 111 is dried.
The disadvantage of this method is the short lifespan of the resulting diaphragm.
A known method for producing asbestos bottom-15 fragments includes preparing a suspension of asbestos and a fluorine-containing polymer, applying a suspension to the cathode, drying the cathode, heat treating at a temperature higher than the melting point of fluorine-containing 20 full polymer, and cooling. Fluorine-containing polymer is used in the form of granules 2.
The disadvantage of this method is that the life of the resulting daafragm is not long enough.
The purpose of the invention is to increase the service life of the diaphragm. This goal is achieved by the fact that in the process of producing an asbestos diaphragm, including preparing a suspension of asbestos and a fluorine-containing polymer, applying a suspension on the cathode, drying the cathode, heat treatment at a temperature above the melting point of the fluorine-containing polymer, and cooling the fluorine-containing polymer in the form of fibers with a length of 0, 05-2.5 cm and having denier from 1 to 100 or a mixture of these fibers with granules with a diameter of 0.2-100 microns.
Fluorine-containing full-fiber n granules should be used in ratios from 1: 1 to 50: 1.
The heat treatment is carried out at a temperature in excess of the melting point of the fluorine-containing polmer at 5-50 ° C.
