It is determined that as the selection criteria for the anode increase, the amount of transition of its material to the cathode in the liquid-vapor phase increases as well. When choosing the electrode material, the most important task to be taken into account is the solid-phase constituents of erosion. %@ 2083-6473 %R 10.12716/1001.11.04.07
