In this work, a cermet electrode structure is developed for the anode structure using a porous borosilicate structure as the mechanical base for the anode structure coated with a thin silver film from the reduction of Ag resinate film to provide a conductive base. The electrode catalysts were added by the reduction of a mixture of platinum/ruthenium resinate. 

Tungsten-copper-boron nitride pseudoalloy electrodes have been tested in electric discharge machining of hard alloys [101,102]. Alloys used in the manufacture of electric contacts are frequently composites of metals and a-BN, providing for increased heat durability [103]. Thus, silver cermet electrical contact material for circuit breakers is made by hot-pressing of the constituents [104 to 106]. Again, Ag/BN composite layers can also be prepared by electrodeposition [107]. Zinc alloys as used in coating sheet steel as anticorrosion layers may contain dipersed a-BN for increased weldability and corrosion resistance [108 to 111].
