Anodes #3707649

Platinised anodes replaced the conventional Lead anodes a few decades ago. The platinised anode's long life, dimensional stability and shape forming to any geometry (fabricated into any shape) allows the plating chemistry to be easier to manage and maintain. They can be easily removed and or replaced whenever necessary.

PLATINISED NIOBIUM METAL ANODE is very light in weight, flexible, and strong. The niobium substrate is resistant to corrosion, and remains dimensionally stable over its operating life, and consumption of the platinum coating is extremely low. TiTaN's PLANMA (Platinised Niobium metal anode) anodes can be used in numerous geometries.

Platinum is a precious metal having very good physical and chemical properties such as high corrosion resistancethermal conductivitycatalytic natureAs it is very expensive, platinum cannot be used in its solid form as an anode. So that Platinised Metal Anodes ( Pt Anode ) are produced by electroplating platinum ( Pt ) on a specially treated precious metal ( Titanium Niobium Tantalum Zirconium ) substrate by means of electrodeposition process. Thus electroplated metal anodes are economical as well as it retains the superior physical and chemical properties of platinum. According to the substrate material used, the platinized anodes are called as electroplated titanium anode ( EPMA -Ti )electroplated niobium anode ( EPMA -Nb )electroplated zirconium anodes ( EPMA -Zr )electroplated tantalum anodes ( EPMA -Ta )
