Abstract:
    A process for the generation of halogens from halide-containing solutions includes the step of conducting electrolysis of the solutions in an electrolytic cell having a platinum based amorphous metal alloy anode having the formula PtpAaDd where A is Cr, Mo, W, Fe, Os, Cu, Ni, Ag, V, Au and mixtures thereof; D is B, Si, Al, Ge, P, As, Sb, Sn and mixtures thereof; p ranges from about 40 to 92; a ranges from about 0 to 40; and d ranges from about 8 to 60, with the proviso that p a d=100. Such amorphous metal alloy anodes are also based on the formula PtpEeFf where E is Cr, Mo, W, Fe, Os, Ir, Cu, Ni, Rh, Pd, Ag, Ti, Ru, Nb, V, Ta, Au and mixtures thereof; F is B, Al, Ge, As, Sb, Sn and mixtures thereof; p ranges from about 40 to 92; e ranges from about 0 to 40; and f ranges from about 8 to 60, with the proviso that p e f=100.
