ABSTRACT:
An electrolytic diaphragm cell for the production of halogen, hydrogen and an alkali metal hydroxide solution by electrolysis of an aqueous alkali metal halide solution, the cell comprising a plurality of anodes vertically mounted at one side of the cell, a cathode box mounted at the opposite facing side of the cell providing cathodes between adjacent anodes, and a hydraulically permeable diaphragm between adjacent anodes and cathodes, comprising a sheet of a porous non-melt-processable fluorine-containing polymer connected to an upper and lower slotted supports of a melt-processable fluorine-containing polymer by means of strips of a melt-processable fluorine-containing polymer fused to the upper and lower edges of the diaphragm. The diaphragm preferably comprises a plurality of sheets of the non-melt-processable fluorine-containing polymer which are joined together by joining strips of melt-processable fluorine-containing polymer fused into the sheets at or near juxtaposed edges of the sheets.
