Platinized Titanium & Niobium Anode Dimensionally Stable Anode

Platinum is a precious metal having very good physical and chemical properties. Tiaano manufacturing and supplying platinized anodes are widely used for electroplating and electro winning industrial applications. Electroplating is used in a variety of industries for coating metal objects with a thin layer of a different metal. This electrochemical process requires anodes. There are as many types of anode compositions as there are applications. Platinized Titanium and platinised Niobium Electroplating anodes offer numerous benefits.

Electroplating anodes are used to create products in many industries, including the hydraulic industry. 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.

Titanium has the mechanical stability and uniform current distribution character, Tiaano India design, manufacturing and supplying Platinized or MMO coated titanium electrodes for various Electro Chemical Application and Industrial Applications.

Electrochemical process requires anodes. Mainly Platinized Titanium or Platinised Niobium Anodes. Platinised titanium anodes combine the excellent electrochemical characteristics of platinum with the good corrosion qualities of titanium.

Titanium - activated by a platinum or a mixed metal oxide (MMO) layer with semiconducting properties - forms an insoluble anode. Both types of anodes are widely used for very different electrochemical applications (electro winning, electro synthesis, electro analysis, electroplating (mainly Automobile parts plating anode, Copper foil plating anode, Hard chrome plating anode, Rotogravure cylinder plating anode, Chromium plating anode, Wire plating anodes, Copper plating anodes, Gold plating anodes, Nickel plating anodes) cathodic corrosion  protection (CP) (Mainly seawater and limited space area), disinfection (mainly Electro Seawater Chlorination, Ionization) Gray Water Treatment, Sewage Treatment and waste water treatment, Effluent Treatment and others). The property of titanium to passivate when anodically polarized is the reason for its use as anode base. The activation must be corrosion-resistant against the electrolyte and must remain active.

Tiaano propose the platinized Titanium anodes or Iridium based MMO Anodes for electro Chemical process because of its advantages like complex shapes is possible, Long lifetime, Easy maintenance, High dimensional stability and loading capacity, Good corrosion resistance, Low weight, Perfect current and distribution, Replatinizing / Recoating.

Platinum is a precious metal having very good physical and chemical properties such as high corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity and catalytic nature. The Platinum Coating delivers excellent performance and a long service life. The life time of platinised titanium anodes is in particular dependent on the work medium (electrolyte) and the anodic current (specific current density).

For high-quality electroplating anodes, manufactured to customer specifications and design, Electroplating is used to coat certain metals with a thin layer of a pure metal, like copper, chromium, platinum, nickel, palladium silver, zinc, gold or any of several alloys. During the process, an electric current passes through a solution known as an electrolyte. The composition of the electrolyte depends on the desired coating. The item being electroplated (cathode) is immersed into the electrolyte solution, as is the plating anode.

Tiaano, Platinum plated Titanium base Tube anodes are most suitable for electro plating / hard chrome plating applications.

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).

Brief overview of Electro Plating process:-

The two are then connected to an electrical current source, by connecting the positive end to the plating 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 of platinized Titanium Tube Anode:-

Long operating life; maintenance-free.

Economical due to low platinum requirements.

High dimensional stability and load resistance.

Good current distribution.

Replating repeatedly

High corrosion resistance.

Low weight.

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

Platinised titanium anodes / Niobium Anodes consist of a titanium base / 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).

Platinised titanium and niobium Electrodes are completely or partially covered with a fee microns of platinum (usually 2.5µm). Where the platinum is consumed after years of use, the underlying titanium or niobium passivates and the bath voltage rises at constant current operation. The base metals are not attacked at the usual operational voltages, in fluoride free chromium baths.

For most applications the platinum wear rate is very low and the corresponding anode life time high. In sulphuric acid chromium baths the platinum consumption is between 1g and 4g platinum per million amp hours. Careful design of the platinized anodes will increase their benefit and maximize their life span.  

Platinized titanium Electrodes / Anodes provide a cost effective replacement for lead anodes in hard chromium plating. They provide superior quality deposition and consistency resulting in increased productivity and throughput. Cost benefit analysis demonstrates that the higher initial investment in this technology can be recouped within a short period of time.
