Abstract

In filter press electrolytic cell assemblies, gasketing materials are frequently used for sealing the cell contents between individual frames. An improved design of gasket is disclosed, having a bulb profile at one surface with a hollow or indented profile on the opposite. Use of this specific profile gasket, positioned in properly molded or machined sealing grooves in the mating surfaces of electrolytic cell frame members, permits repeated disassembly and reassembly of cell frame components without leakage of electrolytic fluids between cell compartments, or leakage from cell interior to exterior.
