English
Platinum Coated Titanium Electrodes is a layer of platinum or platinum metal oxides coated on titanium substrate. It is lasting, non-consumable and insoluble in the electrolyte, It is widely used in electroplating and cathodic protection field.
Parameter of the Platinum Coated Titanium Electrodes:
| Description | Platinized Titanium Anode |
| pH level | Between 1 and 12 |
| Platinum layer thickness | 0.1 - 20 µm or as desired |
| Maximum content of fluorides in electrolyte | 50 mg/l |
| Maximum allowable current | 75 A/dm2 |
| Maximum allowable operating voltage | 12 |
| Consumption rate in sea water | 8 ~ 16 mg / A year |
| Shape available | Plate, mesh, rod, tubular, wire etc. |

Features:
Anode geometry remains constant over time;
Energy savings;
High corrosion resistance;
High dimensional stability and load resistance;
High levels of adhesion of the precious metal coating;
Improved resistance to acid attack;
Increased throughput with reduced plating times;
Light weight (especially the mesh grid anode);
Long operating life; maintenance-free;
Long service life under higher current density in acidic solutions;
Produce complex shape of anode;
Resistance to interface degradation by deposits.
Application:
Horizontal plating, pulse plating;
Precious metal electroplating - e.g. Au, Pt, Pd, Rh and Ru baths;
Non-ferrous metal electroplating - e.g. Ni, Cu, Sn, Zn and non-fluoride Cr baths;
Printed circuit boards electroplating;
Impressed Current Cathodic Protection.
UTron manufactures platinized titanium anode by adopting electroplating or brush plating process to get a dense wear-resistant layer of platinum coating. The anode surface is modified to improve adhesion of platinum and to significantly improve uniformity of coating thickness, also reduce the coating porosity imparting greater acid resistance to the anode. This platinum coated titanium anode can be fabricated into bar, rod, sheet, mesh and other customized shape to meet your special needs.
