Background technology
The known multiple commercial run that utilizes electrolyzer to come to make ozone from water.In these processes, use has the electrolyzer that is used to realize electrolysis and therefore is used for ozoniferous middle body, and the negative electrode (negative potential) and that described middle body comprises an anode (positive electrode) that has the smooth plate form usually, have a same configuration is arranged on proton exchange membrane between anode and the negative electrode (Nafion for example TM), this proton exchange membrane is made up of the solid electrolyte with smooth plate form, as at for example U.S. patent No.6, described in 328,862.
According to cited paper, anode itself is the porous member that is made of titanium usually and has the ability that can see through liquids and gases.On (interior) surface of proton exchange membrane, be applied with a thin platinum layer by an electroplating process at anodic usually.Between this platinum layer and proton exchange membrane, be provided with an electrode layer, described electrode layer comprises metal or semimetallic conductor and/or its oxide compound (for example plumbic oxide), it is characterized in that the superpotential of high evolution or deposition potential with respect to oxygen.Near the anodic outside surface, promptly be provided with an anode side collecting board (being also referred to as electrode support) that contacts with anode with proton exchange membrane facing surfaces place at it, it provides the electrical connection between anode and the power supply on the one hand, and the outlet that is used for oxygen/ozone gas of being produced is provided on the other hand.In addition, the anode side collecting board also can make the required water of electrolysis can be directed to anode side itself.
Negative electrode also comprises one by porous material or wherein have the material of suitable passage and---be generally stainless steel or titanium and also have the ability that can see through liquids and gases---member of making.On (interior) surface of proton exchange membrane, be applied with metallic electrode layer at negative electrode to be used to produce hydrogen.The platinum layer that this metallic electrode layer is normally thin.Outside surface near negative electrode, be provided with a cathode side collecting board (being also referred to as electrode support) that contacts with negative electrode, described cathode side collecting board provides being electrically connected between negative electrode and the power supply on the one hand, on the other hand electrolysis is required water guiding proton exchange membrane and by this proton exchange membrane guiding anode and be provided for the outlet of the hydrogen that produced where necessary.
Above-mentioned multi-layer electrode structure is contained in the electrolyzer chamber that suitably forms.For making easy installation, the electrolyzer chamber is formed by two halfbodies usually, and they are aligned and are fixed together by means of for example tie-bolt in the mode that seals.Be used for the required pressure of intact contact between the adjacent electrode structure floor also the screwing fixedly each other of two halfbodies by the electrolyzer chamber provide.

Embodiment
Being used in electrode structure 10 according to the Figure 1A in the ozone generating electrolysis cell of the present invention mainly comprises negative potential (or negative electrode) 13, ozone generation positive electrode (or anode) 16, is arranged on proton exchange membrane 15 between the described electrode 13,16 and first (positive electrode or anode side) electrode support 17 of a side relative with described film 15 that is arranged on positive electrode 16.Described electrode support 17 is arranged on one (anode side) supporting member 18, and this supporting member is provided with the through hole 19 that is used to electrically contact.Electrode 13 is formed on second (cathode side) electrode support 12, and this electrode support 12 is arranged on (cathode side) supporting member 11.
Electrode support 12 is used to electrically contacting between outside DC power supply (not shown) and the negative potential 13 is provided on the one hand, is used for water guiding electrode 13 during cell operation that electrolysis is required on the other hand and the hydrogen of generation is shifted from electrode 13.Therefore, the form of electrode support 12 is the members with high conductivity and vesicular structure, and has high physical strength, to bear the high pressure up to 20 crust that may form in the electrolyzer.Especially, electrode support 12 is arranged on thin in the supporting member 11 and porous titanium frit, its by to titanium particle cold high pressure moulding make.Here and after this, term " frit " is meant the material of being made by cold-forming by powder particle.The technical parameter of moulding process is adjusted to the titanium frit that obtains and has the physical strength of hope, reaches competent porosity simultaneously.In a preferred embodiment, shown in Figure 1B, the titanium particle preferably includes the particulate of the titanium of three kinds of different sizes that are arranged in layered structure, wherein, described layer is by the order setting of particle size, thereby make: before moulding, relative thicker titanium valve 12a (preferably including the particulate that is of a size of 600-1200 μ m) is put into supporting member 11, then, apply titanium valve 12b (preferably including the particulate that is of a size of 350-600 μ m) thereon with median size particulate, at last, apply very thin titanium valve 12c (preferably including the particulate that is of a size of 150-350 μ m) thereon.Therefore, titanium frit of making by moulding and the cathode side electrode support of making thus 12 will have the particle size gradient along depth direction.
Cathode side supporting member 11 is made by plastic material special, that have chemoresistance, and it is shaped as a for example annular element.But supporting member 11 can be made by any other material, also can have any other shape obviously.
One essential condition of electrolyzer valid function is the good electrical contact between electrode 13,16 and the film 15.Therefore, electrode 13 forming on the electrode support of being made by the titanium frit 12 has crucial importance.In electrode structure 10 according to the present invention, it is preferred using the platinum powder (so-called platinum black) of very thin for negative potential 13.

The solid electrolyte that film 15 is formed according to ozone generating electrolysis cell of the present invention.In addition, film 15 also makes the gas delivery that produces in cathode side and anode side.The required water of electrolysis is introduced in a side of film 15 by second electrode support 12 that is provided with electrode 13, and the gaseous mixture of the oxygen that will handle and ozone is at the opposite side of film 15, promptly produce at ozone generating electrodes 16 places.It should be noted that by (being formed by film 15) on the electrode of making in the above described manner 13 provides very slick surface, because the deleterious deformation/distortion of the film 15 that the pressure that acts on by electrode structure 10 causes can be reduced to minimum possible degree.This helps to prolong the life-span according to ozone generating electrolysis cell of the present invention.
Positive electrode 16 is used to support anode side electrochemical reaction.For positive electrode 16, use conducting metal, semi-metal and/or its oxide compound usually.It is favourable using the oxide compound of transition metal, because they can obtain usually and be not expensive.But, the physical strength of these oxide compounds is low, therefore it is high and have on the base material of chemoresistance for the oxygen of highly corrosive and the gaseous mixture of ozone to be placed in physical strength, thereby makes described oxide compound can bear the high pressure that on period produces in electrolyzer and can mechanically do not damaged.
For the electrode support 17 that is used to support positive electrode 16, use precious metal (as platinum) or alloy and/or their mixture with good electrical conductivity.In electrolyzer according to the present invention, the platinum plate of suitably being bored a hole is as electrode support 17, and described platinum plate is provided with preferably diameter and is the through hole of 0.8mm at least.
Anode side supporting member 18 is used for and will removes from electrode 16 at the oxygen of electrode 16 places generation and the gaseous mixture of ozone during the cell operation.Supporting member 18 is used for electrode support 17 is fixed to electrode 16 and the latter is fixed to film 15 in addition, to provide ideal between them to electrically contact and uniform transitional surface is provided.In a preferred embodiment of the electrode structure shown in Figure 1A 10, supporting member 18 is made by the material of elasticity, porous, tool chemoresistance, is preferably made by the PTFE frit that obtains by high-pressure molding PTFE particulate.Supporting member 18 is provided with through hole 19.Be assembled into according to ozone generating electrolysis cell of the present invention in, through hole 19 is adapted to and is used to admit an anode side conductive members, this conductive members is used for anode side support 17 is electrically connected to outside DC power supply (see figure 2).
In electrolyzer according to the present invention, ozone generating electrodes 16 by have good electrical conductivity, plasticity-, high with respect to evolution or deposition potential superpotential and make for the material of the chemoresistance of the gaseous mixture of the oxygen of highly corrosive and ozone, preferably comprise by weight and to be the plumbic oxide of at least 10% PTFE and the mixture of PTFE.The mixture of plumbic oxide and PTFE does not use other additive to make by following process by solid-phase raw materials at ambient temperature.
On the plumbic oxide of a kind of component of the mixture of forming plumbic oxide and PTFE, the evolution or deposition potential of oxygen is very high, therefore can make the ozone of hope thereon with high transformation efficiency.Described component is favourable, because it is not expensive, can obtain, have unreactiveness usually (owing to not having the more oxidation state of high price) and dissolve in most of solvents, and has better electroconductibility than some metal.As everyone knows, at ozone between the emergence period, the oxygen that two kinds of possible crystal formation α of plumbic oxide and the crystal formation β among the β can be used for wishing-ozone transforms, wherein, between transition phase, as X-ray diffraction measure confirm, β type interface recrystallize (interfacial recrystallization) takes place.This means that need to change the plumbic oxide (that is, the recrystallize in reaction process) that is applied, this demonstrated a steady state value after 2-12 days cycles.Before making positive electrode 16, to rolling that plumbic oxide continues, obtain the colloid size thus, be that average particle size is the plumbic oxide particulate of 0.5-100 μ m that they make from the plumbic oxide fragment of initial macro-size.
For other component of electrode 16 materials, use to have the PTFE monofilament that fiber (cotton wool type) structure, thick 50-100 μ m and length are 1mm to the maximum.PTFE silk with described size can make by the shredder processing or the friction of PTFE piece spare.The size of initial PTFE monofilament has definite effect for the plasticity-and the elasticity of the mixture of final plumbic oxide and PTFE.
In order to make the material of positive electrode 16, plumbic oxide and PTFE a certain amount of, that for example be about the very thin monofilament form of 300mg a certain amount of, that for example be about the particulate that is rolled into the colloid size of 1600mg are put into a mixing tank.Described electrodeless (apolar) material can easily mix mutually.Stir slightly, after preferred 10 minutes, the mixture that obtains thus poured in the special frit shaping jig of preparing, and be pressed into inwards by applying the pressure that is at least 50MPa, is preferably 250MPa then for this reason, be the plate of 0.25mm with the thickness that formalizes.In moulding process, the PTFE silk takes place to tangle and merge, and makes the plumbic oxide particulate combined simultaneously.According to plumbic oxide/PTFE plate that microscopy obtains, prove that the material that obtains thus has compact size and successive surface, can easily form and have elasticity and ductility by mechanical means.At last, cut into the size of hope by the plumbic oxide/PTFE plate that will obtain thus and it is formalized make electrode 16.
Being noted herein that in the mixture of above-mentioned plumbic oxide and PTFE, is that a certain amount of PTFE of about 16% is being favourable aspect plasticity-/elasticity and the electroconductibility by weight.Utilizing under the situation of a large amount of PTFE, mixture will have more plasticity-, but have less electroconductibility.But under the situation that adds a small amount of PTFE, mixture will have less plasticity-, but have more electroconductibility.
Utilization rolls or other processing applies big shearing and makes PTFE stand thaumatropy, and---in our experience, this causes the stabilization to the β type crystal formation of plumbic oxide---is important.Because different with the method for prior art, the method according to this invention does not comprise heat treated step, therefore, can not change owing to deleterious crystal formation takes place for this.Rule of thumb, the conductivity of fiber electrode is significantly higher than the conductivity of the material with microgranular texture.
In the embodiment of above-mentioned electrode structure 10, positive electrode 16 and anode side electrode support 17 form isolating member.But, it should be noted that the ozone generating electrodes 16 and first electrode support 17 can form the electrode that combines, make thin platinum layer be applied on (outward) surface of the electrode of making by the mixture of plumbic oxide and PTFE 16.
