The analysis of modern technical solutions for the protection of the cathodes of electrolysis cell was carried out. The technological variant of obtaining protective coatings based on nanocrystalline titanium diboride is substantiated and proposed. A comparison of the basic and expected indicators of aluminum production is made using cathodes with protective coatings. A technical solution has been developed to organize the production of nanocrystalline titanium diboride. Its main technical and economic indicators are substantiated.
