Abstract

The invention relates to an iron-based inert anode with a lithium ferrite protective film and a preparation method and application of the iron-based inert anode. The inner layer of the iron-based inert anode is pure iron or an iron-based alloy, the outer layer of the iron-based inert anode is a lithium ferrite oxide layer, and the pure iron or the iron-based alloy undergoes electrochemical anodicoxidation in lithium-containing molten carbonate to obtain the iron-based inert anode. The iron-based inert anode has good electronic conductivity, excellent oxygen evolution catalytic performance, high stability and good thermal shock resistance; and the iron-based inert anode is low in cost and easy to process and can be used as a stable oxygen evolution inert anode in a high-temperature moltensalt electrolysis system taking carbonate as a main component.
