Abstract
<PICT:1036517/C6-C7/1> An electrolytic cell for the production of metallic fluoborates, e.g. stannous fluoborate, contains a cathode at or near the top of the cell and an anode at or near the bottom of the cell, the cathode comprising a pool of mercury in a container having a porous woven bottom composed of a material which is resistant to decomposition in fluoboric acid and is sufficiently porous to permit free transfer of the fluoborate ions. The embodiment described comprises a main electrolytic cell 1 upon a support 2, provided with a cathode 3 and anode 7, the latter formed of tin in a suitable form, e.g. granular, shot, stick, and provided with an anode lead 8 formed of a carbon rod screwed into a carbon slab 8a, and an auxiliary electrolytic cell 17. The cathode 3 comprises a container 4, having sides of or coated with inert non-porous plastic, the bottom of which is formed of a porous woven material which is not decomposed by fluoboric acid e.g. polyethylene, having a pool of mercury thereon, into which dips a cathode lead 6. The mercury therein is continuously passed via the pipe 16 to the auxiliary electrolytic cell where it is decontaminated, contaminant metal plating out on to the cathode, and is then returned via a washing tower 26, in which it is cooled. The cell contains a layer of metallic fluoborate, covering the anode, and above this a layer of hydrofluoric acid, in which the cathode is situated. Fresh acid is introduced via the pipe 9,and metal fluoborate solution is withdrawn through the pipe 13 by means of a pump 14 into a receiver 15.
