An electrolytic electrode having an interlayer having more excellent
peeling resistance and corrosion resistance and longer electrolytic life
than conventional electrolytic electrodes and capable of flowing a large
amount of current at the industrial level and a process of producing the
same are provided. The electrolytic electrode includes a valve metal or
valve metal alloy electrode substrate on the surface of which is formed a
high-temperature oxidation film by oxidation, and which is coated with an
electrode catalyst. The high-temperature oxidation film is integrated
with the electrode substrate, whereby peeling resistance is enhanced.
Further, by heating the high-temperature oxidation film together with the
electrode catalyst, non-electron conductivity of the interlayer is
modified, thereby making it possible to flow a large amount of current.
