There is provided an aluminum cathode base plate which has an insert of dielectric material at an upper edge thereof, in the vicinity of the solution line of the electrolytic cell when the cathode is placed into such cell for the purpose of electrodeposition of zinc. The insert has a flat surface which is raised or projected above the surface of the aluminum base plate by a distance of 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm on both sides of the base plate. In this manner, when the stripping knife strikes the dielectric insert during stripping of the electrodeposited zinc sheets and then penetrates between the zinc sheets and the aluminum base plate, it will not hit and damage the perpendicular interface between the dielectric insert and the aluminum base plate. This will avoid rapid deterioration of the base plate and will significantly improve its life span.
Ici est fournie une plaque de base en aluminium pour cathode qui a une insertion de matériau diélectrique sur son bord supérieur, à proximité de la surface de la solution de la cellule électrolytique lorsque la cathode est placée dans cette cellule aux fins de l'électrodéposition de zinc. L'insertion a une surface plane qui est soulevée ou projetée au-dessus de la surface de la plaque de base en aluminium d'une distance de 0,5 mm à 1,5 mm de chaque côté de la plaque de base. De cette manière, lorsque le couteau à dénuder frappe l'insertion diélectrique pendant le dénudage des feuilles de zinc électrodéposées puis pénètre entre les feuilles de zinc et la plaque de base en aluminium, il ne frappera pas et n'endommagera pas l'interface perpendiculaire entre l'insertion diélectrique et la plaque de base en aluminium. Cela permettra d'éviter une détérioration rapide de la plaque de base et permettra d'améliorer considérablement sa durée de vie.
