Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1731631A2] In a process to form a composite material to reinforce a metal structure, an anode containing carbon and a metal oxide are brought into electrolytic contact with a cathode in the vicinity of the material to be strengthened. The metal is deposited under cathode conditions, the membrane sub-dividing the electrolytic cell into anode and cathode chambers. The anode is an inorganic substance containing CaCl 2. The metal oxide is a lightweight metal e.g. Al, Mg, Ti, Ni, Nb, W and/or Zr. The strengthening material is an electrically-conducting fiber, particle, open-pored foam, metal, carbon, or ceramic e.g. SiC. Also claimed is an electrolytic cell for the production of the composite material.
