ABSTRACT:
An electrode useful in an electrolytic cell contains thallium (III) oxide. A method for enhancing the electrocatalytic activity and/or stability of an electrode includes compounding an outermost layer containing thallium (III) oxide with a conductive substrate. The electrode is particularly useful in reversible-type reactions such as the conversion of ferrocyanide to ferricyanide as well as in irreversible-type reactions, such as electrolysis of water to obtain hydrogen and oxygen or the electrolysis of chloride-containing solutions to obtain hydrogen and chlorine.
