It is desirable to select 40%. this is,
The volume ratio of the insulating oxide and the electrode base material component forming the layer on the electrode base material side of the intermediate layer is 60:40 to 95:
This is because the volume ratio of the insulating oxide to the outermost surface of the electrode and PbO 2 is 60:40 to 95: 5. When the volume ratio of the insulating oxide is 95% or less, a sufficient amount of Pb for conducting electricity between the electrode base material and the electrode outermost layer is provided in the electrode outermost layer side of the intermediate layer.

Among the intermediate layers, the thickness of the outermost layer of the electrode is
It is desirable that the thickness be 195 μm or less. This is because even if this layer is made thicker than this, the exposure of the electrode base material component to the plating solution is not further suppressed, and conversely, film peeling is likely to occur. In addition, if the thickness of the layer on the electrode base material side of the intermediate layer is 5 μm or more, sufficient adhesion with the electrode base material is secured. However, the thickness is 250μ
When it is around m, the layer is likely to be peeled off, which is not preferable. On the other hand, the thickness of the outermost layer of the electrode is also 5 μm.
If it is m or more, the exposure of the electrode base material to the plating solution is sufficiently suppressed. Therefore, the thickness of the insulating oxide porous coating formed by thermal spraying is preferably 10 μm or more.

On the other hand, when the pressure is higher than 2000 atm, the porous film of the insulating oxide is densified and the porosity is lowered, which is not preferable. The treatment time is preferably about 1 to 5 hours in order to be industrially commensurate. In addition, after forming PbO 2 on the outermost layer of the electrode, HIP
When the treatment is performed, the PbO 2 coating layer is densified and easily peeled off. Therefore, it is necessary to perform the HIP treatment before forming the PbO 2 film.

After that, the pores of the insulating oxide porous film are filled with PbO 2 to form the outermost layer of the electrode.
