AN1220 Platinized Titanium Anode

Platinized Titanium Anode Description

A platinized titanium anode is simply a titanium anode coated with platinum or platinum metal oxides. Platinized titanium anodes act as inert anodes and are non-consumable and long lasting. These anodes are insoluble in the electrolyte under the conditions present in electrolysis.

Platinum is an excellent anode material due to its high conductivity and low consumption rate. But as one of the precious metals, platinum is often used by electroplating a thin layer over a high corrosion resistance substrate to reduce the cost. Titanium is one of the materials which have the ability to form an insulating oxide film under anodic conditions, so it is often used as an anode substrate.

Platinized Titanium Anode Applications

Platinized Titanium Anodes are applied in two main fields: electroplating and cathodic protection, such as:
- internal protection of condensers, process equipment, etc.
- internal protection of water tanks and pipelines
- protection of reinforced concrete structures
