PLATINUM PLATED TITANIUM ANODES OR REPLATING TITANIUM ANODE FOR ELECTRO PLATING APPLICATION - TIAANO MANUFACTURER AND SUPPLIER OF PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODES AND PLATINIZED NIOBIUM ANODES

May 30, 2021 at 8:07 PMPlatinised

Tiaano Platinised Titanium Anodes are most suitable for electro plating (Metal Finishing). The behaviour of platinized titanium ‘slave’ or ‘auxiliary’ anodes in electroplating is described, with particular reference to use in the plating of gold, rhodium, nickel, copper, tin and chromium. Preceding this survey some characteristics of commercially available platinized titanium are considered, including method of preparation, overvoltage, composition and platinum thickness. The results of accelerated laboratory tests to define limiting conditions of use are given, and durability is contrasted with that of alternative experimental noble-metal-coated refractory metals. Degradation of anode surfaces encountered in some practical applications is attributed to platinum dissolution resulting from reaction with particular organic additives, but in some circumstances an undermining of the coating as a result of superficial dissolution of the titanium may occur.

Platinised titanium anodes were the first coated electrodes to be marketed, and in many applications they have been displaced by dimensionally stable oxide coatings that have been highly optimised for the particular electrolyte. However, there remains a market for anodes which can be used in relatively small scale processes and this could be met by high performance, platinised titanium anodes. Indeed, the number of such applications in electrosynthesis and environmental processing is expanding. It may be timely, therefore, to re-examine the manufacture and performance of platinised titanium anodes and to consider using platinum alloys for nonspecific applications; for example, platinum/iridium coatings on titanium are known to have superior properties in some applications.

Advantages of platinized Titanium Anode:-

Long service time even at high current density

Maintenance-free.

Economical due to low platinum requirements.

High dimensional stability and load resistance.

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.

PLATINIZED SHEET ANODE AND PLATINIZED WIRE ANODE FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL PROCESS (TIAANO CHENNAI, INDIA MANUFACTURER AND SUPPLIER OF PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODES AND PLATINISED NIOBIUM ANODES)

December 16, 2020 at 5:49 PMPlatinised

Platinum is widely used as electrodes in metal finishing industries due its advantage of having special chemical & physical properties like high corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity and catalytic nature.  Being a very expensive metal, instead of using solid form, platinum is deposited on the surface of titanium or niobium, occasionally on molybdenum by micron level layer.  Electrodes [Anodes or Cathodes] are available with hanging hook, frame or band in the form of sheet, mesh, pipe, wire, rod and custom built.  Platinised titanium anode is used in electrolytes having no fluoride. Platinised niobium anodes are used in electrolytes having fluoride, where we need better conduction (its conductivity is three times of titanium)  and also it is suitable for Sulphuric acid chromium plating bath operated at current density greater than 75A / dm².  Platinised titanium / niobium anodes are having the advantages of Low weight - good current resistance; Long life operation - maintenance free;      Economical - due to low platinum requirements; High dimensional stability and low resistance; Highly suitable as auxiliary anodes of complex geometrical shapes.

Platinum Features:-

Platinum is a lustrous silvery-white, malleable, ductile metal and a member of group 10 of the periodic table of the elements. It has the third highest density, behind osmium and iridium. Platinum is unaffected by air and water, but will dissolve in hot aqua regia, in hot concentrated phosphoric and sulphuric acids, and in molten alkali. It is as resistant as gold to corrosion and tarnishing. Indeed, platinum will not oxidize in air no matter how strongly it is heated.

PLATINUM PLATED COPPER ANODES FOR ELECTROLYSIS (TIAANO CHENNAI, INDIA MANUFACTURER AND SUPPLIER OF PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODES AND PLATINISED NIOBIUM ANODES)

December 6, 2020 at 7:22 PMPlatinised

Tiaano offer Platinum plated Copper Anode, Platinum Plated Titanium anodes & Niobium Anodes (Platinum Plated Electrodes) for various research and developments. Many article provides a history of platinised anodes by reviewing innovations in the, electroplating, electro galvanizing, electro winning, chlor-alkali industry etc.... These anodes are attractive for numerous reasons (e.g., long life and educed energy consumption), but they must still overcome the hurdle of cost to gain wider acceptance for applications in the various process industries.

Chemical Behavior of Platinum and Titanium:-

Platinum is preferred on an anode's outer surface because it is highly resistant to corrosion and can ensure current flow in most electrolyte media without leading to the formation of an insulating layer on itself. Because it doesn’t corrode, it doesn’t produce corrosion products and hence the consumption rate is very low.

Titanium shows reasonably good resistance to a marine environment (seawater in particular). It does not react with concentrated (80%) solutions of metallic chlorides. However, it is susceptible to attack by hydrofluoric acid (HF) and hot hydrochloric acid (HCl) of higher concentrations. Even hydrogen peroxide and hot nitric acid can attack titanium. Oxidizing agents normally do not attack titanium because it readily forms a protective oxide coating. However, non-oxidizing substances such as sulfuric acid (above 5% concentration) and phosphoric acid (above 30%) can attack titanium. From a hydrogen embrittlement point of view, titanium fares better than tantalum as an anode material.

Chemical Behavior of Copper:-

Copper is a reddish metal with a face-centered cubic crystalline structure. It reflects red and orange light and absorbs other frequencies in the visible spectrum, due to its band structure, so it as a nice reddish color. It is malleable, ductile, and an extremely good conductor of both heat and electricity. Copper has low chemical reactivity. So people are using platinum plating on copper, this coating / plating protects the metal from further attack.

Platinum is inert in fused salts and acids, whereas it is dissolved in aqua regia. There is no risk of hydrogen embrittlement. It is one of the few rare metals that perfectly resist chlorides of seawater.

Titanium shows reasonably good resistance to a marine environment (seawater in particular). It does not react with concentrated (80%) solutions of metallic chlorides. However, it is susceptible to attack by hydrofluoric acid (HF) and hot hydrochloric acid (HCl) of higher concentrations. Even hydrogen peroxide and hot nitric acid can attack titanium.

Benefits of Platinised Titanium Electrode:-

Platinum has the advantages of electrochemical inertness, mechanical strength, workability and favorable electrical conductivity. However, it is prohibitively expensive. Development of platinum on titanium and platinum on tantalum (plated) materials has opened up the feasibility of using these for anode materials for Electro Plating, metal finishing and cathodic protection systems in critical applications.

The Platinised Titanium electrodes (Anodes and cathodes) create the ionisation, the electrode cell is the heart of an ioniser. It consists of a series of electrodes (plates), each separated by a membrane. The Platinized Titanium Mesh Electrodes is mostly used, because it has outstanding practical performance, such as strong ability of ionization release, good exchange of electrolyte, close structure and light weight, etc.

The best water to drink is alkalized or ionized water, which is produced by running normal tap water over a positive (platinum or platinized anode) and a negative (platinum or 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.

Configuration of Anode and Cathode in Electro plating bath:-

The negative (-) cable is connected to the item to be plated, the cathode.  The Positive (+) lead is connected to the solution electrode, the anode. In this configuration the piece being plated should be rotated occasionally since the deposition rate may be greater on the areas that are facing the anode and less on the side opposite the anode.

Platinum is the most effective metal for any electro chemical or electrolysis process due to its current conducting property. Platinum being the most expensive material rational utilization of Platinum for the greater benefit ensures economical solution. Platinum plated Anodes is none but a rational utilization of platinum by plating limited quantity on to titanium to achieve the same result as using platinum metal.

Platinized Titanium anodes can be operated at very high current densities. 75Amps per dm² are typical. Platinum is preferred on an anode's outer surface because it is highly resistant to corrosion and can ensure current flow in most electrolyte media without leading to the formation of an insulating layer on itself. Because it doesn’t corrode, it doesn’t produce corrosion products and hence the consumption rate is very low.

Advantages of Platinized Titanium Anodes:-

Platinum plated anode has the advantages of electrochemical inertness, mechanical strength, workability and favorable electrical conductivity. However, it is prohibitively expensive.

SPECILIZED PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODE AND SPECILIZED PLATINISED TITANIUM CATHODE FOR ALKALINE WATER PRODUCTION - TIAANO MANUFACTURER AND SUPPLIER OF PLATINISED TITANIUM ANODES AND PLATINISED NIOBIUM ANODES

October 4, 2020 at 10:24 PMPlatinised

Tiaano Design, manufacturing and supplying different sizes and different shapes of platinised anode for water ionizers or Alkaline Water Production (Water Ionization).

Water ioniser Platinum plated Titanium electrodes are one of the most important components, it falls into many basic forms like sheet, rod, tube and mesh or some specialized design according to the chamber design. Water Ionization chamber contains positively and negatively charged platinum-covered titanium electrodes. These electrodes ionize the soluble minerals in the water: positively charged ions gather at the negative electrode to create alkaline water, also referred to as "reduced water" while negatively charged ions gather at the positive electrode to make acid water, also known as oxidized water.

The best water to drink is alkalized or ionized water, which is produced by running normal tap water over a positive (platinum or platinized anode) and a negative (platinum or 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.

Advantages of Alkaline Water or Alkaline Water health Benefits:

Helps in weight loss

Better Hydrations

Helps recover easily from acidosis

More oxygenation

Balance of Body pH

[Natural pH is 7 (less pH of 7 is Acidic body, High pH of 7 is Alkaline body)]
