Anode Applications
There are many types of metal anodes used for different applications.
-
Plating anodes, as their name suggests, are used mainly in plating and electroplating applications. Typically, plating anodes and electroplating anodes are made of platinized titanium anode, ruthenium based anode, platinum and iridium anode, metal mixed oxide anode and iridium anode. Alloys for these metal anodes include cadmium-tin, copper-tin, copper-zinc, tin-lead, tin-zinc, zinc-aluminum, zinc-magnesium, and zinc-nickel.
-
Mixed metal oxide (MMO) electrodes have an oxide coating over an inert metal or carbon core. The oxides consist of precious metal (Ru, Ir and Pt) oxides for catalyzing an electrolysis reaction. Titanium oxides are used for inertness, electrode corrosion protection, and lower cost. Electro chlorination is one common application. The core metals are titanium (most common), zirconium, niobium, or tantalum.
Other types of metal anodes are used in membrane cells, mercury cells, diaphragm cells, perchlorate cells, and sodium chlorate cells.
