Direct Observation of the Anode Effect by Radiography

  • Chapter
Essential Readings in Light Metals

Abstract

The gas generated at the anode during electrolysis, was studied using a X-ray radiographic technique. The events occurring in a laboratory cell were visualized by means of a X-ray source and an image intensifier. Real time video-recordings of the anode gas generation were obtained both during normal electrolysis and during the anode effect.
