Studies on the Deposited Asbestos Diaphragm with a Miniature Diaphragm-Type Chlorine Cell

Abstract

Mass transfer and voltage drop in the deposited asbestos diaphragm were studied with a miniature chlorine cell. The diaphragm was formed on the steel-mesh cathode with a vacuum, and the voltage drop in the compressed asbestos layer was large. The streaming potential through the diaphragm was very small because of the highly conductive electrolytic solution.
