Abstract: A method for the manufacture of insoluble lead anodes, with low segregation of the constituent elements of the anodic alloy for the electrowinning of metals, free of buckling, used in electrolytic processes, which comprises: Obtaining a continuous plate (4) of lead or lead alloy 10 to 30 mm thick by 900 to 1,100 mm wide by means of a continuous casting process; Cut the continuous plate (4) according to a determined length obtaining a pre-plate (6) that will give the length of one or more plates of the anode (8); Roll the lead or lead alloy pre-plate (6) using a cold rolling mill (7) to a thickness of 6 to 12 mm, keeping the cold rolling temperature of the pre-plate under 60° C., obtaining the anode plate(s) (8); Remove the anode plate (8) from the rolling mill (7); Weld (12) a copper bar (10) to the upper end of the anode plate (11).

Abstract: This disclosure provides a joining area and method between copper and stainless steel or titanium, as well as the permanent cathode obtained, where said joining area is made of a first zone of a copper-nickel (Cu—Ni) alloy, an intermediate zone with a mostly nickel alloy or pure nickel and a second zone made of a stainless steel-nickel alloy, which is the result of the participating materials being cast in an arc welding process, for example TIG, MIG or manual arc using electrodes of nickel as welding contributor between said materials and their space arrangement, that is to say, leaving a separation between the materials when performing the welding process, thus ensuring as follows: a) greater tensile strength, b) a substantial improvement of corrosion resistance of the joint welding, and c) improvement of conductibility, which can be improved still further by modifying the straight design of the conducting bar by providing it with the “horn”-type shape.
