Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing an active silver electrode, the method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out anode oxidation reaction to the silver electrode to form a silver oxidation state layer on the surface of the silver electrode in water solution with anion,, secondly, changing polarity of the silver electrode, and carrying out cathode oxidation reaction to cathode of the silver electrode to obtain the active silver electrode, wherein anion is compounded by one, or two, or more than two following ions, namely, (1) perchlorate ion, (2) hypochlorous acid ion, (3) hydroxide ion, (4) nitrate ion, (5) sulfate ion, (6) carbonate ion, (7) halide ion, (8) organic acid ion and (9) phenol hydroxyl root ion, the active silver electrode which is obtained according to the method of the invention is not only provided with a more specific surface, but also provided with higher electro-catalysis activity, longer electro-catalysis performance and less power loss, and the obtained active silver electrode can be used to electrolyze 3,4,5,6-tetrachloropicolinic acid and to compound 3,6-dichloropicolinic, which not only has lower energy consumption, but also has higher production efficiency.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of an active silver electrode. (2) Background technology [0002] Silver cathodes have good electrocatalytic activity for the reductive dehalogenation of halogenated organic compounds, and such good electrocatalytic activity of silver cathodes usually requires periodic activation treatment to maintain. The commonly used activation treatment processes are as follows: ① Place the silver electrode in alkaline aqueous solution, first anodize the electrode to form colloidal silver oxide on the surface, and then reverse the polarity to completely reduce the electrode, in order to obtain better To activate the effect, this process usually needs to be repeated several times. ② Put a small amount of silver salt (such as silver nitrate) into the alkaline aqueous solution, stir well to distribute the formed silver oxide particles evenly on the electrode, and then energize to completely reduce the silver oxide par...
