Abstract
A low polarization electrode which is stable and safe to use, is manufactured by forming a layer of divided nickel or nickel alloy on an electricity-conducting substrate and thereafter sulfiding the surface of the resultant material. For example, a Raney nickel alloy is deposited on the substrate, the alloy metal is removed and the resultant material is sulfided.
