Electrolytic cell comprising an electrode unit produced by self-fluxing welding, electrolytic bath comprising such an electrolytic cell, and corresponding manufacturing method

By using self-fusion welding technology to form weld seams in the peripheral areas of the electrode and flow field materials, forming electrode units, the problems of complex assembly and component damage in existing electrolytic cell stacks are solved, achieving simpler and more reliable assembly of electrolytic cell stacks.

Abstract

The present application relates to an electrolytic cell comprising at least a first and a second bipolar plate (14) and an electrode unit (1216a, 1216b) and a membrane (11). The electrode unit comprises a planar electrode (12a, 12b) and a sandwich (16a, 16b) which is elastically deformable in a direction orthogonal to the planar electrode (12a, 12b) and which has a thickness which is greater than the thickness of the electrode (12a, 12b) at least in a central region of the sandwich (16a, 16b), the sandwich (16a, 16b) comprising a peripheral region which is flattened in said direction and which is connected to the periphery of the electrode (12a, 12b) by a weld resulting from a self-fusion welding. The present application also relates to an electrolytic cell stack comprising such an electrolytic cell and to a method for manufacturing such a stack.
