Platinized Titanium & Niobium Anode Dimensionally Stable Anode

Platinum plated Titanium or Niobium Electrodes (Anodes and cathodes) are the workhorses of many laboratories, especially for the research and development for biomedical field. They are regarded as being stable to anodic dissolution, and it is expected that platinum coated titanium, either plated. It will be a cost effective, industrially useful alternative to bulk platinum metal.

Tiaano platinum plated titanium Wire anode is simply a titanium anode plated with pure 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.

Electrodes Usage:-

Electrodes for medical purposes: - Electrodes for electrophysiology techniques in biomedical research. Platinum being the most expensive material rational utilization of Platinum for the greater advantages ensures economical solution. Platinized 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.

Common Advantages for Platinized Anodes (Niobium or Titanium):-

Platinized titanium anodes / Niobium Anodes are very frequently used as expanded metal anodes due to their excellent characteristics of …..

High throwing power

Good electrolyte exchange

Compact construction

Low weight, Low maintenance

Energy saving potential,

High electrical conductivity

Resistance to oxidation,

High chemical stability

The standard platinum thickness is 0.5 micron to 5 micron in case of higher loads layer thickness of up to 20 micron. The lifetime of platinized titanium or Platinized Niobium electrodes is in particular dependent on the work medium (electrolyte) and the anodic current. Platinized titanium anodes or platinized Niobium Anodes combine the excellent electrochemical features of platinum with the good corrosion qualities of titanium.
