✦ Synopsis

A membrane-electrode composite assembly (MECA) was applied to the cathodic reaction in brine electrolysis. The cell voltage stably exhibited a value of 2.93 V, which is lower by 0.07 V than that obtained with the zero gap system with an activated cathode. Neither reduction of the caustic current efficiency nor increase in the sodium chloride content of caustic soda was observed, suggesting that the MECA should be applied to the cathodic reaction rather than to the anodic reaction in brine electrolysis.

The electrochemical reduction of the multilayer oxide on smooth Pt electrode in HClO, solution was studied using a galvanostatic technique. This oxide is completely reduced in the potential region where the electrosorption of hydrogen on Pt electrode occurs and the reduction rate depends on the hydr
