Platinum plated titanium anodes have been successfully used in Electro plating. As long as suitable electrolytes are used, a completely lead-free process is usually possible without excessive costs by simply replacing lead anodes with Pt/Ti anodes. Plating anodes using high-temperature electrolysis offers two additional ecological benefits: Considerably longer life span based on better durability. Sparing use of platinum (which is made resistant to corrosion through high-temperature electrolysis). Re-platinization of the base substrate means that any existing platinum can be refurbished and reused, saving costs.

Another benefit of the Platinum plated anode is that they require no touching up due to the dimensional stability and the high-temperature electrolysis that allows up to 99.99% purity in platinum coatings, as well as excellent adhesion and ductility.

Platinum Plating Titanium Anodes using high-temperature electrolysis offers two additional ecological benefits: Considerably longer life span based on better durability. Sparing use of platinum (which is made resistant to corrosion through high-temperature electrolysis). Re-platinization of the base substrate means that any existing platinum can be refurbished and reused, saving costs.

Gravure printing is widely used for printing magazines, catalogues, stamps, packaging, wallpapers or decorative papers for the furniture industry as well as elaborate artistic publications. The gravure cylinder used for this method consists of a steel core which is coated with copper. To increase the wear resistance, a chrome layer is subsequently applied. For both electroplating processes, given tolerances must be controlled to ensure print quality meets quality standards.

As an engraving material, copper is comparatively “soft”. To increase the hardness, additives are added to the electroplating bath. By nature, chromium is a hard metal with a fine grain structure. This makes it ideal for protecting the engraved copper deposits applied to gravure cylinders. During press runs of any length hard chromium protects the cylinder from wear caused by paper and grit abrasion and, under normal conditions, enables the cylinder to print in clearer, sharper lines for the entire run.

Advantages of Platinized Anodes in gravure / Rotogravure Cylinders Plating:-

Long life, dimensionally stable and easily fabricated into required shape

Homogeneous and long-lasting active surface

Easier handling and replating

Metal Finishing is a process whereby a coating is deposited onto a substrate by passing a DC current between the anode and the cathode. The metal that is to be plated is dissolved in the electrolyte. The anode (Platinum Plated Anode) is anodically polarized and the cathode (the component to be electroplated) is cathodically polarized. This forms a closed cell. Anode performance is of considerable importance in realizing the success of the electroplating industry.

Tiaano manufacturing Mixed Metal Oxide and Platinized Titanium Anodes for use in various applications where the electroplating of a wide range of metals is necessary. The use of stainless steel anodes, although relatively inexpensive produce iron oxide (rust) as a by-product of anodic passivation and the use of graphite anodes results in an increasing inter-electrode gap as the anode dissolves meaning voltage and product quality do not remain constant. Inert anodes are frequently made from platinized titanium, which is titanium coated with a thin, not necessarily continuous, layer of electrodeposited platinum approximately 2.5 μm thick.

Tiaano manufacturing different sizes and Shapes (Multi slot, Multi hole, Perforated, Slotted, Mesh etc) of platinised Titanium Anodes and Platinized Niobium Anodes for Electro Plating. Platinised titanium anodes combine the excellent electrochemical characteristics of platinum with the good corrosion qualities of titanium.  This anode is designed for Electro Plating application.

The advantage that these Titanium Anodes have over the two previous anode types and lead anodes is that the risk of additional toxic or hazardous substances being introduced into the electroplating line is eliminated, eradicating costs that arise from the removal of hazardous substances. They are also environmentally friendly and the fact that the inter-electrode gap remains constant throughout the design life of the anode means that the Titanium Anodes maintain constant voltage and product quality. Oxygen-evolving Titanium Anodes have lower anodic operating potentials and use of these anodes yields the additional advantage of the ability to re-use the anodes. Once the anodes have reached the end of their design life the necessary repairs can be made, the anodes can be cleaned and then re-coated.

What is Electroplating?

Electroplating is basically the process of plating a metal onto the other by hydrolysis mostly to prevent corrosion of metal or for decorative purposes. The process uses an electric current to reduce dissolved metal cations to develop a lean coherent metal coating on the electrode. Electroplating is often applied in the electrical oxidation of anions on a solid substrate like the formation of silver chloride on silver wire to form silver chloride electrodes.

Electroplating is majorly applied to modify the surface features of an object (e.g corrosion protection, lubricity, abrasion), but the process can also be used to build thickness or make objects by electro forming.

The Anode and Cathode:-

In electroplating practice, the current is usually introduced from an external source and the anode is the positive electrode and cathode is a negative electrode. The cathode is the electrode where the electrochemical reduction reaction occurs. The anode is that where the electrochemical oxidation reaction occurs.

The electroplating process uses an anode and a cathode. In electroplating, the metal dissolved from the anode can be plated onto the cathode. The anode is provided with direct current, oxidizing and dissolving its metal atoms in the electrolyte solution. At the cathode, the dissolved metal ions are decreased and the metal is placed on the product.

Tiaano offer premium quality range of Platinized Titanium Expanded Mesh Anodes. In adherence to the set industry standards, our provided 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.

Electroplating anodes are used to create products in many industries. All kinds of metals can be plated in this way, including gold, silver, tin, zinc, copper, cadmium, chromium, nickel, platinum, and lead. Electroplating is very similar to electrolysis (using electricity to split up a chemical solution).

The two are then connected to an electrical current source, by connecting the positive end to the platinum plated anode and the negative to the item being to be plated. Once current flows through the system positively charged metal ions become attracted to the negatively charged item, thereby coating the item with the desired finish.

Advantages:-

•          Manufacturing of complex shapes is possible

•          Long lifetime

•          Easy maintenance

•          High dimensional stability and loading capacity

•          Good corrosion resistance

•          Low weight

•          Perfect current and terminal distribution

•          Replatinizing with crediting of residual platinum

Platinum coated (Platinized) Titanium Anodes are highly conductive anodes used in electroplating. Platinized titanium metal anodes are most suitable for wet electro deposition of precious metals like gold, platinum, palladium, chromium, nickel and copper etc.

What is Electro plating?

Electroplating, also known as electrodeposition, involves the deposit of a metal or metal alloy onto the surface of a substrate. An electric current is passed through a liquid that contains dissolved ions of the metal and the substrate. The object serves as a cathode and attracts the metal ions found in the plating bath. A pretreatment process that typically includes cleaning, rinsing and stripping is often employed prior to plating. Common bulk electroplating methods include rack plating, where the parts are affixed to a jig, and barrel plating, where numerous smaller parts are tumbled inside a barrel-shaped cage.

The two are then connected to an electrical current source, by connecting the positive end to the platinum plated anode and the negative to the item being to be plated. Once current flows through the system positively charged metal ions become attracted to the negatively charged item, thereby coating the item with the desired finish.
