Making Lead Dioxide Anodes - Attempt

Please note that in the video I accidentally labeled anode and cathode opposite of what they should be. It should say copper cathode, lead anode. Ask any questions in the comments!

In this situation the anode is considered positive and the cathode negative.

Wow! Very simple but in depth explanation! To the point, but easy to understand! Just what I needed! Subscribed my man

For Chlorate-perchlorate electrolysis It must be done by electrodeposition of lead nitrate copper nitrate acetone or non Ionic surface agend surfactant process making anode for stand this corrosives environments of Chlorate-perchlorate cells at leas 3mm coating without bubble forming in surface using right temperature control 60C° ph control ( acidic conditions 3ph) current density low for beta or high for alpha type also in the process must used vibrator or ultrasonic cleaner or the Anode must move inside the solution to not form bubbles on the surface!!! As for the process is painful for someone that begin now as amateur chemist to produce this kind of anode !!!

A nice and simple way to make lead dioxide electrodes :) Good idea!

I saw that you completed this process using 1.5 volts DC. How many amps were you running and what did you use as a power source?
Also, just a quick question about the finished product, how thick of a coating was formed onto the lead electrode..
Thanks, great video.

Sweet! I was looking for a simple method like this, thanks!

[CatboyChemicalSociety]

this anode is good for producing H2SO4 from rock containing gypsum!!

[bestfireworkschannel]

Whether this anode will be suitable for perchlorate electrolysing?

[JDeffenb]

That is awesome. Keep up the good work!

Using epsom salt baking soda or even alum also works. though is not very quick. May take several hours.

One complaint. "thoroughly wash your glassware" Where? I don't recommend introducing more lead into the environment.

[michaelcorbidge]

Perhaps could use the positive plates of a dismantled lead acid battery

[firelordzuko]

hello very nice video would the LD electrode that you made stand in a chlorate or a perchlorate cell

[SodiumInteresting]

I know commercially coated electrodes usually have uncoated part and your process of making this leaves uncoated part but surely the whole surface is conductive. I'm just wondering why you stress a need to sand the top for connecting to a power supply?

Heya, The best ideas that I have read was on Volt daddy (i found it on google) Probably the most detailed info on batteries and this kind of things that I have found.

I am making a video on making elemental chromium from ammonium dichromate, and burning this chemical is said to be dangerous. the products are nitrogen, steam, and chromium (III) Oxide. The oxide is the most dangerous if done outside. That is all, right? It shouldn't be very dangerous. Also, I have editing software now! I can make videos! I  watch filmriot sometimes, and they showed hitfilm 3 off. It works great.

Hello would Sodium bisulfate (NaHSO4) work as a replacement? Thanks.

[diy_chem]

I made it, looked just like yours, but as soon as I tried to run a chlorate cell with one the solution turned brown after an hour.
If I used a titanium or graphite substrate, would this still happen

[ThePeterDislikeShow]

Is there a bismuth equivalent to this? To avoid the toxicity of lead?

[msmsms]

Would you please simplified way to make lead borate?
