Abstract
A carbon electrode is disclosed comprising a porous carbon block and having a flexural strength of at least 50 MPa and exhibiting, on a linear sweep voltammogram obtained by subjecting the carbon electrode to potential sweep in concentrated sulfuric acid at 25.degree. C., a peak having a maximum current density at a potential of at level 1.2 V. This carbon electrode is substantially free from the danger of destruction and the danger of local breakage and partial coming-off and can advantageously be used as an anode not only for stably conducting the electrolysis of an HF-containing molten salt but also for producing a desired electrolysis product with high purity.
