Samples of electrodes with an active layer based on TiO 2, RuO 2 and oxides of rare earth elements Ce, La, Nd, doped with carbon nanoscale, have been obtained. The morphology of oxide electrodes was studied. Their electrochemical behavior in aqueous solutions of sodium chloride and sulfate was studied. The values ??of the current-free potentials, the values ??of the current densities and the potential regions for the release of chlorine and oxygen from aqueous solutions of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate have been determined. The dependences of the volume of released chlorine on the composition of the electrodes are presented.
