Platinized Titanium & Niobium Anode Dimensionally Stable Anode

A water ionizer works on the simple principle of electrolysis. Water ioniser has two electrodes (Anodes and cathodes) put into a container having two chambers separated by a semi-permeable membrane. The two electrodes - positive and negative, are put into two separate chambers and the current is passed through them. Ionization process takes place on passing of the current through the electrodes. The dissolved minerals get attracted either to the positive or negative electrode, therefore one of the chambers will have acidic water while the other will have alkaline water. The alkaline water is for drinking purpose, whereas the acidic water is for disinfecting or sterilizing purposes.

The key factor for a quality water ionizer is the material of the electrodes. Most good ionizers on the market use electrodes made of platinum plated titanium Grade 1. Titanium will not dissolve in ionized water as the cheaper metals like steel. The ionizer uses grade 1 titanium electrodes to be plated with a good electrical conductor with longevity built to last 10 years that will also not dissolve during electrolysis.

Specifications for our Platinized Titanium Wire Anode:-

Tiaano Platinum Plated titanium anode is a key component of the electrolysis process. The quality of the metal electrode (Titanium or Niobium) directly affects the quality of the overall process. Platinum are non-reactive or inert electrodes and it is a noble metal. So platinum plated Titanium is used as an electrode in electrolysis application.

Our company uses original electroplating, so the precious metal and the titanium substrate are well combined. Because a variety of platinum group noble metals are added to the coating, the current efficiency is high, the electrical conductivity is good. Also the electro catalysis Good performance, strong oxidation resistance, long working life and energy saving.

Titanium anode is also called DSA (dimensional stable anode) anode or insoluble Ti anode due to its good dimension stability and high corrosion resistance. It can prevent it from polluting the electrolysis solution and increase final product purity.

The titanium used is 99.9% pure as established by ASTM (American Society of Metal).

Configuration of Anode and Cathode:-

Generally, the gold plating is connected to the anode (Platinum Plated Titanium Anode or +ve charged electrode) of the circuit. The jewellery is kept at the cathode (-ve charged electrode).

Both are kept immersed in a highly developed electrolytic bath solution. At this stage, a DC current is supplied to the anode that oxidizes the gold atoms and dissolves them into the solution. The dissolved ions of gold are reduced at the cathode and plated on the jewellery.

Advantages of the Platinum Plating Anode in Gold Plating Application:-

·         Simplified handling

·         Optimum anode surface

·         Long lifetime

·         Stability in the bath

·         Simple set-up

·         No complicated wiring

·         Replaceable anodes

Tiaano offer premium quality range of Platinum plated Anodes (Electrodes) for various electrolysis application. In adherence to the set industry standards, our provided pt anode is well-manufactured using high grade raw material and latest technology. Owing to its corrosion-free and fine finish, to ensure the best quality, the offered anode is stringently tested by our quality experts against different quality parameters. Many article provides a history of platinum plated anodes by reviewing innovations in the chlor-alkali industry, electroplating, electro galvanizing, electro winning, Water Treatment, Wastewater treatment etc.... 

Tiaano manufacturing various dimensions and Shapes of platinum plated or platinised electrode for water ionizers. The essential parts of the ionization chamber are its two collecting electrodes, (the anode and cathode) the anode is positively charged with respect to the cathode. Water Ionizer Electrodes [Anodes or Cathodes] are available with hanging hook, frame or band in the form of sheet, expanded mesh, pipe, wire, rod and custom built. 

The best water to drink is alkalized or ionized water, which is produced by running normal tap water over a positive (platinized anode) and a negative (platinised cathode) electrode. This creates positive and negative ions in the water that are then separated creating two different waters, one that is alkaline and one that is acidic.

Alkaline water is for flushing out internal toxins, scavenging free radicals, and oxygenating the body. Acid water, which is really a by-product of ionizing water, can be used externally for cleansing the skin, cleaning any surface and feeding your plants.

Most good ionizers on the market use electrodes made of platinum plated titanium. Titanium will not dissolve in your ionized water as the cheaper metals like stainless steel does. The ionizer uses grade 1 titanium (as per ASTM Standard) electrodes to be plated with a good electrical conductor. Stainless steel was used for Water Ionizer electrodes in the late 1980's and was found not be a suitable material because they did not last more than a  few years.

Tiaano Platinised Titanium or Platinised Niobium Anodes are most suitable for electro plating of precious metals like gold, platinum, palladium, chromium, nickel, rhodium and copper etc…

Platinised anodes consist of a titanium base or Niobium base, in the form of either expanded mesh, sheet, rod, wire or tube with a plating of platinum between 2 to 5 microns thick and purity of platinum is 99.99%. They possess the electrochemical properties of platinum. The titanium used is 99.9% pure as established by ASTM (American Society of Metal).

The service time of the platinised titanium anodes depends on the chemical resistivity of the base metal, the dissolution rate of the deposited platinum in the electrolyte, which in turn depends upon layer morphology, and adhesive qualities, pH, current density and current ripple. For most applications the dissolution rate is low and the advantages of platinized titanium anodes are far greater than any metal loss.

Electroplating is used in a variety of industries for coating or plating metal objects with a thin layer of a different metal. This electroplating process requires anodes or Electrodes. Especially platinized Titanium or Platinised Niobium anodes. The most common uses for electroplated products are chrome-plated oil pump auger flights, hydraulic cylinders, conveyor flights, sheets and tanks where it would be impractical or too expensive to make the item entirely out of the plating metal.

Platinised Anode describes the refractory metals. Refractory metals such as titanium, niobium, tantalum, molybdenum and tungsten are usually used as the substrate in the production of platinized Anodes. Expanded metals, sheet metals, round stock, tubes, rods, ribbons and wires of the most varied materials and dimensions are available. The base metals or Substrate meet the specifications of ASTM.
