  • Process for charging silver electrodes to monoxide level
    Patent number: 4461677
    Abstract: A method of charging silver electrodes in which an electrode of porous sintered silver is anodized in the conventional manner in alkaline electrolyte to the so-called peroxide level and usually beyond, into the oxygen-evolution level, where the majority of the silver has been electroformed into divalent silver oxide. The charged electrode is then permitted to wet stand in the electrolyte or other alkaline solution to allow the residual unanodized silver in the electrode to convert a portion of the divalent silver oxide to monovalent silver oxide by a reverse disproportionation reaction.
