Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2574170A1] The invention relates to a method for producing electrically conducting nickel oxide surfaces made of nickel-containing material. According to said method, the nickel surface is first degreased and is then roughened for approximately ten minutes in a solution containing about one percent of hydrochloric acid, said process being accelerated by adding hydrogen peroxide solution, resulting in the electrolyte turning green. The nickel surface is briefly watered, the nickel material is introduced into a solution of 3.5 molar lye to which about ten percent of hydrogen peroxide is added and is kept therein for ten minutes, and the resulting nickel hydroxide surface is dehydrogenated in a subsequent thermal process and is then further oxidized to obtain nickel oxide. The invention further relates to a conductive boundary layer that is produced according the said method, the electrodes therefrom, and the use thereof in chlor-alkali electrolysis processes, in fuel cells and accumulators.
