Abstract
The invention relates to an electrolysis cell having bipolar elements, characterized in that the recess between the bipolar elements and the impermeability between any two consecutive electrode frames are ensured by the peripheral surfaces opposite the said frames which have, on their most external part, a non-deformable rigid face forming a plane of contact resting against the plane of contact of the adjacent frame. At least one of the opposing surfaces has at least one recess in which at least one sealing member is arranged. The cell is particularly useful for the electrolysis of solutions of alkali salts.
