Abstract

The disclosure is directed to preparing three-layer laminated electrodes suitable for use as oxygen (air) cathodes in chlor-alkali and other electrochemical cells, fuel cells and in other electrochemical applications. This three-layer laminate includes an active layer or sheet containing from about 60 to about 85 wt. % active carbon, the remainder being unsintered, fibrillated polytetrafluoroethylene in intimate admixture with said active carbon, said active layer laminated on its working surface to a current distributor and on its opposite surface to a porous, coherent, hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene-containing wetproofing layer.
