Abstract
A non-consumable anode of the type comprising an oxide ceramic coating on a metal substrate, for molten salt electrolysis, namely the electrowinning of metals such as aluminum, has an electronically-conductive oxygen barrier layer between the oxide ceramic coating and the substrate, the oxygen barrier layer containing chromium oxide. Usually, the oxygen barrier layer is a surface film integral with a chromium-containing alloy substrate, comprising 10 to 30% by weight of chromium, 55 to 90% of nickel, cobalt and/or iron and up to 15% of aluminum, titanium, zirconium, yttrium, hafnium or niobium. The ceramic oxide coating may comprise copper oxide in solid solution with at least one further oxide; nickel ferrite; copper oxide and nickel ferrite; doped, non-stoichiometric or partially substituted spinels; or rare earth metal oxides or oxyfluorides.
